Thank you for your reply. What I don't know is this: how do you access your active key or owner key? Because there is a button which says reveal but when I click it it asks me to log in again and then it does the same thing no matter how many times I do it. When I opened my account in 2017 I used steemit.
It seems that I have access to the private posting key That's why I'm able to use this account. Since we were encouraged to never use the important keys if I didn't use the account enough for years all I remember is this. And so the protection became the very problem. It's almost as if what I was trying to avoid became guaranteed. Because if I would save the private owner key now I would have my account. So to protect myself not to get my keys stolen I lost them. That's an interesting paradox.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
You have been here longer than me, so I suspect what you are running into is way beyond what I know. I am less than 1 year in here. I use Keychain and onboarded through Ecency, so as long as I was logged into Keychain I could reveal my active, posting, and memo key (not owner), and as long as I had my Ecency password, I could reveal all four keys (not master password). Not sure if that helps, but I am sure someone has run into your issue before on Steem since it has been around so long. If I think of anything I will reply back here. Good luck!
I managed to solve it. I loged in and recovered it through steemit. Once again, thank you for trying to help.
yay! I am happy for your good news!! :)
