[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1609480, member: 46727"] First of all, it's called "FileVault" not FireVault. I corrected your title to reflect the proper terminology. FileVault is not used to protect you from yourself but to protect your data from others who may have access to your machine. And it is not easy for someone else to obtain the password. According to [URL='https://discussions.apple.com/welcome']this Apple KB article[/URL] certain things that only you know are required to reset the password. [/QUOTE]
