    Unfortunately it is not possible to reset the encryption key of your form. The only option is to disable encryption in your form and then enable it again. Once you enable the encryption of your form, it will download a new encryption key.

    Please note that new encryption key will not decrypt your old submission data. It will only decrypt the submission data which you receive after you download the new encryption key. To decrypt the older submission data you will still need the older encryption key.

    Please check the screenshot below on how to disable encryption in your form and enable it again:
