How to recover encrypted Home with only login password?

Until data wasn't lost I could login and use OS as normal and access my home folder without entering any passphrase because it was automounted at login.



Now I want to access my home folder just by entering the login password as I always did when logging in.But I cant login anymore..



So how to access my home folder only knowing the login password?



In reply to Jo-Erlend Schinstad:





My situation is I cant login anymore because several system files have
been corrupted due to usb problems.So I must use another OS
and because I don't know my mount passphrase I must somehow access
valuable files knowing only my login password.
