MDSX File – What is .mdsx file and how to open it?

MDSX File Format

An MDSX file is a session file created by MEGA, a cloud storage service. It contains information about the user’s session, such as the user’s login credentials, the encryption keys for the user’s data, and the list of files and folders that the user has accessed during the session. MDSX files are used to store user preferences and to resume user sessions.

MDSX files are typically stored in the user’s MEGA cloud storage folder. They are created automatically when a user logs in to MEGA and are updated whenever the user accesses a file or folder. MDSX files are encrypted with a strong encryption algorithm, so they are secure from unauthorized access.
