A security mechanism affords data recovery engineers the ability to access and recover secure data from user files without knowledge of the user's password. The mechanism uses a launcher application to access the database by establishing a temporary, restricted user session. The launcher application also passes a handle to an industry standard database tool, allowing the data recovery engineer to recover the user file data. The recovered data then can be accessed by the software application.
