Time Machine available without TM drive attached! - jonny - 02-04-2021
M1 Mini Big Sur
I just realized that I can enter Time Machine without my Time Machine backup drive attached. I was then able to recover a file I had deleted! Am I missing something or is this a tad unusual?

One of the three books was David Pogue's Mac SECRETS, Big Sur edition.
