Recovery keys

A browser key does not recover a Mac Drive

A Door A key starts with eidos-rk-v1_. It is a different secret from a Mac Drive kit. The Mac app rejects it. This page does not take the key.

Browser recovery is not wired. This page cannot prove that key, replace the account record, or re-wrap files. There is nowhere to type it here.

Keep this key. It will be required for recovery. Recovery isn't available on the web yet.

A Mac recovery kit starts with timestore-recovery-kit-v1. It is a different secret from a Door A key. It does not reset a browser password.

Keep this kit. It will be required for recovery. Recovery isn't available on a Mac yet.

A recovered Mac cannot write files, sync the Drive, or open files.

A Drive encrypted before this version has no sealed copy. Words cannot open it, and a Mac cannot make a kit for it.
