Explanation

Full Disk Encryption (FDE) protects user data, operating system files, and temporary files while the system is in use. However, erased files are not protected by FDE. Once files are erased, they are typically removed from the encrypted volume and are no longer encrypted or recoverable through FDE. It's important to note that FDE only protects data that is currently on the disk.
