Smart Card Security for ProtectTools
Creating a Recovery File
To create a recovery file:
1. Select Start > All Programs > HP ProtectTools Security
Manager > Smart Card Security.
2. Select the plus sign (+) to expand the Smart Card Security
menu, and then select Smart Card.
3. Under Recovery, click Create.
4. Enter the smart card PIN and click OK.
5. Enter the file path and file name in the Filename field.
Ä
To avoid loss of access to the computer, do not save the
recovery file on the computer hard drive; you will not be able
to access the file without the smart card. Also, a recovery file
saved on the hard drive may be accessible to others, posing a
security risk.
6. Set and confirm a recovery file password, and then click OK.
Ä
CAUTION: To prevent the loss of the smart card recovery file data, do
not forget the recovery file password. You cannot re-create your card
from the recovery file if you forget the password.
