Errors with check-backup

[swiss-JF]

Hi, small questions. I have used mvt-ios before (like on year ago), and had to run a test on a device recently. the backup went smoothly. The backup was made successfully. No error while doing it and it had the indication "backup successful".

However, when IU run the check-backup module, I get a few errors. Last time I had use it, it went fine. I am not sure where the issue could be, and would be interested if somebody could point to me what is going wrong.

I removed some identifying details on the device.

Backup is probably encrypted, try decrypt with mvt-ios decrypt-backup /path/to/backup/folder -d /output/path

[swiss-JF]

Thanks for your reply.

I tried, but got another error. I did not put a password. So I just hit enter when prompted to input the password (seems like I should have typed a password).

I did also
mvt-ios check-backup and got a similar error
