If you choose not to create an Emergency Disk at this time, you can create one
later by running CheckUp. Guard Dog also reminds you every four months to
create or update your Emergency Disk. You can also create an Emergency
Disk by running the Interview and clicking Next until you reach the
Emergency Disk page.
How password protection effects using Guard Dog
If you set up Guard Dog to use a password—either through the Interview or
Preferences in Protection Settings—you are prompted for the Guard Dog
password when you start Windows. When you enter an incorrect password,
Guard Dog displays the hint that you provided when you created your
password.
Without the password you can still open the Guard Dog Home screen, but you
won’t be able to change your CheckUp Settings or Protections Settings. Also,
Guard Dog won’t let you use the Password Manager information in Browser
Buddy or send out information protected by Identity Protector.
If you’ve forgotten your Guard Dog password, you can retrieve it from the
Emergency Disk, so remember to keep your disks in a secure location.

WARNING:
If you forget your password and didn’t create an
Emergency Disk, you can reinstall Guard Dog to use it—but you’ll lose
your Guard Dog settings, Password Manager information and won’t be
able to use any of your encrypted files.
To retrieve your Guard Dog password
1. When you try to use a Guard Dog password-protected feature, the Guard
Dog Password dialog box appears. In the dialog box, click OK. The
Guard Dog Login Failed dialog box appears.
2. Insert the first disk of your Emergency Disk set into your floppy disk
drive and click Browse.
3. Click the icon for your floppy drive and click OK.

TIP: Use Interview when you want to change your Guard Dog
password, then update your Emergency Disk set (you can reuse the
same disks) to store your changed password information.
