You be wouldn’t be able to anyway because they use encryption to prevent your data being compromised by the guy who stole your laptop. This is a tricky balance but it’s also never been easier to have backup so I think this is the right balance for most people.
- williamcotton 3y agoWouldn't it be just as safe if it was possible to print out a backup key?
- acdha 3y agoThat’s part of the system setup process for that reason. The point was just that data recovery isn’t as strong an argument against integrated components as was around the turn of the century: online backup services are ubiquitous, components are far more reliable, and relatively few people are going to be in the situation where they have a system fail to the point where they can’t even use target disk mode but the drive is still intact and they have the FDE key but not backups.
