Can you please tell me. How can I get old data if my mother key lost?

If I create new mother key all the previous data shows mother key corrupted.

Can you please guide me in this.

    After each change mother key, the previous mother key is stored in a specific file.
    Librariries/[YYYY_MM_DD-HH_MM_SS]-secret.dat
    [YYYY_MM_DD-HH_MM_SS] => daily date
    The active mother keyis in the file: "Librariries/secret.dat"
    Rename the previous file with ".old" and rename the file
    "Librariries/[YYYY_MM_DD-HH_MM_SS]-secret.dat" in "Librariries/secret.dat".
    Load the old mother key and test if you can read your old datas.

    Thanks for the answer.
    But my concern is if I forget operator key which we have to insert to load the mother key then how can I recover the old data.

    Operator Key is just for protect your Mother Key. Do you know your Mother Key ? If you've got the value of your Mother Key, you can use the "SecretServer management" screen. In this screen, you can recreate a new "Mother Key".
