Find my private keys after updating my computer?
Hello,
I recently did a clean install of Mac Os 10.12 on my laptop. Before I erased my hard drive for the install, I did a copy of it as a .dmg file, so I could transfer back all my preferences and whatnot after the install.
However, I can't seem to find my private PGP key, is it possible to find it somewhere in my backup? I've read this : https://gpgtools.tenderapp.com/kb/gpg-keychain-faq/backup-or-transf... but it's not very helpful, since I didn't backup the keys specifically.
Thanks in advance :)
