# Gérer la clé maîtresse

Définissez une clé maîtresse dans Remote Desktop Manager pour chiffrer un espace de travail SQLite ou XML et le protéger contre les accès non autorisés.

Utilisez ***Fichier*** – ***Gérer la clé maîtresse*** pour chiffrer votre espace de travail SQLite ou XML.

La clé maîtresse empêche les utilisateurs non autorisés d'accéder à l'espace de travail sans connaître la clé maîtresse. Il est fortement recommandé d'appliquer une clé maîtresse à l'espace de travail si vous utilisez Remote Desktop Manager dans un environnement portable (c.-à-d. clé USB, disque dur USB).

{% hint style="danger" %}
Si vous perdez votre clé maîtresse, Devolutions ne peut pas récupérer vos données. Assurez-vous de vous souvenir de votre clé maîtresse ou d'en faire une sauvegarde dans un endroit sûr.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/fr/ribbon-menu-bar/file/manage-master-key.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
