There is a diference between the "root" key and the keys you can load into a TPM or HSM. The former is sort of built in, but you can provision several TPM/HSMs

There is a diference between the "root" key and the keys you can load into a TPM or HSM. The former is sort of built in, but you can provision several TPM/HSMs with loadable keys and then use those for your crypto implementations - otherwise, every time a TPM/HSM broke, you'd risk data loss. If anyone is using a Windows machine with TPM-based bitlocker encryption, you have followed the instructions at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/back-up-your-bitlocker-recovery-key-e63607b4-77fb-4ad3-8022-d6dc428fbd0d https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/back-up-your-bit... I hope?
