I use Windows QT Wallet for collect coin and also encrypted it with passphase.
If my computer down, how can i restore my wallet to new computer ?
Tell me please.
Thanks
Make a backup of the wallet file. Also dont forget your password, it happens more often than you think. Then on a new pc get the wallet and place the wallet file in the signatum folder in /appdata/roaming.
rookie question..we dont have to backup the wallet after every deposit right? just after the first setup we backup the wallet file. then if we need to we can restore it and the coins will be there?
For most coins all you really need is a piece of paper with the recovery phrase/private key and PW if you had one
Remember there is a public ledger, the only way to lose those coins are to lose access to the wallet, or to have them sent somewhere else
So as long as you have access, no matter from what computer (this includes hackers), they can do whatever they want with those coins
edit - and no you only need to back it up once to answer your question directly.
edit 2 - answer above mine better
