Recovering an previous Multibit pockets file (76 characters lengthy)

I’ve a pockets file from 2011 again after I used to mess around with Bitcoin.

I used an previous model of Multibit which has since lengthy been unavailable.

My pockets appears to be like like this:

# KEEP YOUR PRIVATE KEYS SAFE !
# Anybody who can learn this file can spend your bitcoin.
#
# Format:
#   <Base58 encoded personal key>[<whitespace>[<key createdAt>]]
#
#   The Base58 encoded personal keys are the identical format as
#   produced by the Satoshi shopper/ sipa dumpprivkey utility.
#
#   Key createdAt is in UTC format as specified by ISO 8601
#   e.g: 2011-12-31T16:42:00Z . The century, 'T' and 'Z' are obligatory
#
U2FsdGVXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXsnQhpZ6
 2013-10-30T20:52:01Z
# Finish of personal keys

I managed to get a model of Multibit HD from the online archive however this does not help this pockets.

I additionally tried utilizing OpenSSL with the next command:

openssl enc -d -p -aes-256-cbc -md md5 -a -in C:keywallet.key.txt -out c:keywallet-decrypted.key.txt

This output a file which wasn’t appropriate and gave a unhealthy decrypt error. I do know the password for this file.

Does anybody know the proper methodology of decrypting this?

UPDATE: Whereas I am at it, I discovered an entire bunch extra .key information. This one has a special format:

org.bitcoin.productionm!œ;€ò=°´zXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXÌñ9,o( 2D
䢦]5+¡XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXE}Û@nŸé(2
