#About keys
There are 2 types of key files:
`prod.keys` and `title.keys`.
* `prod.keys`
These are typically used to decrypt system files and encrypted game files. Almost every major firmware update adds a new `master_key` so be sure to keep your keys updated if you want to play newer games!
* `title.keys`
These are only used for games that are not dumped from cartridges but from games downloaded from the Nintendo eShop, these are also only used if the eShop dump does *not* have a `ticket`. If the game does have a ticket, Ryujinx will read the key directly from that ticket.
