This is very important in such a way that it would help you recover your coins in your wallet; if your computer fails/corrupted hdd or accidentally delete the %AppData% folder, in short you lost your wallet.dat.
The first step is to copy the address you intend to dump the private key.
(for multiple transactions/address, you need to generate private key per address)

In the command line type dumpprivkey [address],
(the address here refers to the wallet address you copied from step 1)

Copy this and paste it in notepad and save. You will need this [BitcoinFastprivkey] in recovering your wallet address/es.
(Take note, you need to do this for each wallet address in your BCF Wallet)
Now, to use the generated privatekey.
Type in the command line in the debug window, importprivkey [BitcoinFastprivkey]
