Overview
The x360Recover Agent for macOS requires Full Disk Access to allow sufficient permissions to perform a complete backup of the system.
- Apple has strict security requirements around the assignment of Full Disk Access that requires user intervention to assign this permission.
- As it cannot be automated by the software application installer, you must complete this step manually after installing the agent.
Important: Backups for the protected system will fail until Full Disk Access is granted to the agent.
