The method coinstash gives is absolutely the right thing to do. Substitute Jaxx etc for Electrum-LTC as your prefer.

And remember the golden rule: NEVER paste private keys that hold any currency into ANY website or wallet in order to claim forked coins (including ours). Practice responsible forking! 1. Wait for the fork; 2. Move your Litecoin to a new address; 3. Use the private key for the "old" address to claim your Litecoin Cash.

*sigh* I am confused now, as I see 2 different HOWTOs. I have LTC in an electrum ledger wallet (NOT the ledger bitcoin app). I also have another - yet empty - electrum wallet, from where - months ago - I moved everything out into the ledger electrum wallet. So from what I have understood, I have to do this:

Move all LTC into non-ledger electrum wallet
Export private keys (Is it ok to export them now, or have I to do this after the fork, when it´s empty again?)
- Wait for fork to happen
- AFTER fork I move LTC back to ledger electrum wallet
  - Create new LCC wallet
  - LCC wallet: Import private keys from non ledger wallet
  Are these the appropriate steps or did I miss something?
  Regarding: "never paste private key in a wallet, which holds currency" --> What would happen, if I let all my LTC stay in the non-ledger wallet, instead of moving it back to the ledger wallet, AND then claim the coins by pasting the key in LCC wallet?
