hi dev how to backup the wallet? Huh

You will find the "wallet.dat" file in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\ZettelKasten. All you need do is copy this file and save is somewhere safe (AFAIK).

Another method is dumpprivkey and save them somewhere safe Smiley

how to do this Huh

In the zettelkasten-qt app, go to the tools->debug console menu and once the console opens, type "dumprivkey
" to get the private key of an address.

Thanks for the tip, I did this as extra backup.

There also is the console command "backupwallet " , after some testing I found this command does not like spaces for the backup destination, so 'C:\zettelbackup\filename' will work but 'C:\zettel backup\filename' will not work.

Correction:
Must have been half asleep, noticed it will only save to root of the selected directory and renames the file with any extra directory paths, thus..

'backupwallet x:\folder01\filename01' will result in backup saving to root 'x:\' with filename 'folder01filename01' and not save to '..\folder01' with filename 'filename01', why ?
