If they are validated, you can save the secret phrase to a file. It is strongly recommended that you save your secret phrase to a removable media that can be stored in a secure location. If you need to reinstall FileSafe Express (for instance, if your hard drive becomes disabled), you will not be able to recover backed-up data unless you can provide the original secret phrase.
