FYI Electrum is an HD wallet which means you have a set of words called "seed" that are used to generate ALL of your private keys that you already have in your wallet and will generate in the future when you used these and wanted new ones.
so all you had to do was to write down that "seed" on a piece of paper and use that to recover your keys without needing to access them individually.

you can get your seed from menu Wallet > Seed

Make sure that you're offline when displaying your Private keys (in case of a malware/virus infection), then follow this:

  • Just click "Wallet" menu, select "Private Keys", and click "Export".
  • Type in your Passphrase and all of your addresses' private keys will be displayed (you can also dump it as CVS or json if you want)

If the wallet name at the top (title bar) displays "watch-only", the private key menu will be unclickable.

Hey I was just curious as to how I would get the private key to my electrum wallet on windows 10? I recently started ASIC and GPU mining and wanted to make sure I am safe and have the private key to my wallet. I just for  some reason have not been able to find the private key to my wallet. Maybe I passed it up and didn’t know it. I would appreciate any help I can get. Thank you everyone!! Loving the crypto and mining gig though very much!!
