Set Recovery Lock (macOS)

Recovery Lock prevents a Mac from being started into Recovery Mode or booted from external media without knowledge of a password. As of version 26.4, this password can be set, changed or removed directly from Relution using the Set Recovery Lock action.

The action is only available for supervised devices. If a Recovery Lock password is already set on the device, it must be entered in the Current Recovery Lock password field. Use the Remove Recovery Lock password toggle to remove an existing password without setting a new one.

Dialog for setting the Recovery Lock on a macOS device

The current Recovery Lock status of a device can be viewed in the device’s security information.
