I've tried ecryptfs-recover-private command it does find Private folder from new location but also give message could not found wrapped-paspharse and ask me for password , when I enter password it shows me files mounted in /tmp/xsswwx some name but in that direcoty all files are encryped . Any idea how to get them back .
