Removing DriveLock Protection CAUTION: Forgetting or losing both the user and master passwords will render the protected hard drive permanently unusable. Record your master password and keep it in a secure location physically separate from your computer. In the event you lose the user password, the master password can be used to unlock a protected hard drive and reset the user password. Once you create a password, you can only delete the passwords after the computer has restarted and the protected hard drive has been unlocked.
