Since SecureFolder manages encryption keys for your files and folders, if 
SecureFolder is uninstalled from your system while files or folders are secured, the 
encryption keys for those files and folders will be lost.  Furthermore, if a user 
account is removed from the system while that user has files or folders secured, 
the encryption keys for those files and folders will be lost.  Therefore, 
SecureFolder includes an emergency data recovery utility that uses a passphrase, 
which is chosen by the owner.  If SecureFolder is uninstalled, or if a user account 
with secured files or folders is deleted, the passphrase can be used to decrypt the 
data. 

To choose an emergency recovery passphrase: 

1.  The first time you secure a file or folder, the 

 dialog appears.   

2.  Enter and confirm your passphrase.
