Recover Information
In the event of chip failure or reset:
■ The Emergency Restore Wizard can be used to recover data from
the PSD.
■ The PSD also supports recovery by using a recovery agent, which
is a mechanism similar to Encryption File Systems (EFS).
To determine if you have a registered recovery agent on the
computer, click Start > All Programs > Administrator Tools >
Local Security Policy > Public Key Policies > Encrypted Data
Recovery Agents.
For more information, refer to the operating system online Help.
✎
Windows XP Professional does not automatically create a registered
recovery agent. Follow the operating system instructions for setting
up the registered recovery agent.
To recover data, the registered recovery agent must have the digital
certificate and the keys. You should export the data recovery
certificate and private key to disc, store them in a safe place, and
delete the data recovery private key from the computer. The only
person who can recover data is the person who has physical access to
the data recovery private key.
