Do I need to disable FileVault before upgrading to High Sierra?

2017-11-13 Thread Donna Goodin
Hi all, I'm hoping that sometime within the next week or so I'll get around to upgrading to High Sierra. Should I disable file vault before upgrading? I don't want to end up locked out of my Mac again. Cheers, Donna -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visiona
