Daedalus wallet backup

To make a copy of your wallet, follow these instructions.
Note, if your wallet is password protected, the copy will have the same password protection. If you have no password, then your keys are exposed.
For Mac: Same principle for windows.

  1. Shut down Daedalus
  2. Create a folder “Ada wallet” on your desktop
  3. Go to menu bar and select “Go”, click “Go to Folder…”
  4. Search for “~/Library/Application Support/Daedalus”
  5. You should be able to see the Daedalus folder.
    Copy “Secret-1.0” and “Wallet-1.0” to the “Ada wallet” folder you’ve created. (Copy/Paste, Not Move)
