   Conversation between me and my backup:

   Backup: "Got it backed up and encrypted. It's safe from unauthorized access. "

   Me: "I would like to restore a file."

   Backup: "It's safe from unauthorized access"
   ------
   Check your recovery - frequently.

   #backup #restore

     @_elena well done! Either the encryption or .. anything else has locked me out of my backup. Always keep in mind: backup is just the first half - the second is the restore.

     Good that I got aware of it BEFORE I needed a disaster recovery.

     @_elena ohh :-O
     I know what you mean. Once I thought Amazon Glacier would be great for backups - until I calculated what the restore price could be if I want the files "urgently".
