VERY IMPOR-
TANT:
Regardless
of which option
you choose to
save your TPM
ownership pass-
word, it is critical
you do not lose
this password,
or any data you
encrypt could
be lost to you
forever.
There is
no way to circumvent or recover this password if you lose it.
Owning the TPM is a critical step in securing your system. To
create the password we recommend letting Windows create
one for you for maximum security.
Saving your password is critical to protecting your data, and
so you must choose one of the above steps to continue. You
will not be able to initialize/take ownership of the TPM until
you choose an option.
