Do PS Vita backups contain activation info?

Arqade Asked by jack980517 on March 7, 2021

*By saying “backups” I mean the backup files created when using the “backup” option in the Content Manager.

I bought and downloaded some PS Mobile (PSM) games, and want to keep playing them. Now that the PSM platform is discontinued, further activations wouldn’t be possible after Sep. 10. The real problem, however, is that I need to format the console to change accounts. I’m afraid that the activation info would be gone if I format the console and I would never be able to play the PSM games after Sep. 10.
Do the backups contain activation info, or more precisely, the PSM activation info?

No. Apparently not.

Back when Fallout 4 came out I did a system back and switched regions on my Vita so I could remote play from a different account. When I did the system restore my games were working. I was for sure able to boot rymdkapsel. I haven't tried any games since until tonight when I went to boot the game again and now it's telling me to activate my system for PSM and of course, when I click it I get an error. All I've done since last play was to take any system updates that were pushed out so I don't know what happened. But, based on what's going on now. I'm going to say no, don't risk it.
