So...am I doing this right? What I did:
1. Turn off Bitcoin.
2. Copy the wallet.dat file.
3. I used Winrar to make an encryption.
4. Copy that encrypted file to a safe place.
5. Delete the original wallet.dat file. (I won't lose anything right?)
Then when I need to spend, unencrypt the file and put it back into the roaming folder right?
Don't forget to back-up the encrypted file to another location...
If your encrypted file fails, your BTC are gone forever...
If your memory fails to remember the password, your BTC are gone forever...
