That's why even Yandex can't decrypt your passwords. If you deleted passwords on one of your devices, you can try to restore them using another one. You can do this if your other device hasn't received the information about deleting passwords from the server yet. For example, if it's been turned off or if you deleted the passwords only a short while ago: 1. Disconnect your device from the Internet. To do this: {% list tabs %} - Mobile 1.1 Power off the device and remove the SIM card. 1.2 Turn off your Wi-Fi router. 1.3 Power on the device. - Desktop Use one of these options: - Turn off the router. - Disconnect the network cable from the device. {% endlist %} 1.
