/in: the PowerShell credentials .xml file
/password: the password to use to decrypt the PSCredentials
/masterkey: the masterkey to use for decryption. It can be obtained through sekurlsa::dpapi.
/unprotect: displays the decryption results on screen

In the example above, the .xml PSCredential file for decryption was previously created by the same user, hence the absence of the /password or /masterkey argument, which would be needed when attempting to decrypt .xml PSCredentials of a different user.
