Information on Lockpick_RCM.bin

[Krizeth]

Hi guys, I'm always looking for clarification to deepen my knowledge on nintendo switch modding. I was browsing the web, and I see that many people are talking about
"Lockpick_RCM.bin".
From what I see it is associated with backups, but I have already done my backups (BOOT0 / BOOT1 / rawnand.bin).
Now I was wondering: What is it for?
Should I use it? and if so, why?

Withholding clarification on the matter!

Thanks in advance


(for those who ask I'm on "13.2.0 | AMS 1.2.6 | E" and I use my switch only in emuMMC).

No, you don't.
You only dump your keys, and some software needs they keys to decrypt and encrypt. Its said right there.

Lockpick dumps your console specific keys. Not more, not less. There is nothing to misunderstand
