Bitcoin Wallet for Android - permission denied decrypting the wallet backup file using OpenSSL I've followed the advice found on the https://github.com/bitcoin-wallet/bitcoin-wallet/blob/master/wallet/README.recover.md, but I'm having issues decrypted a wallet backup file

When I run below line

openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc -md md5 -a -in bitcoin-wallet-backup-2017-12-25 &gt; bitcoin-wallet-decrypted-backup


I got below error message

$ openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc -md md5 -a -in bitcoin-wallet-backup-2017-12-25 &gt; bitcoin-wallet-decrypted-backup
