Also if you forget your seed you can take it from your electrum.dat (even if it is encrypted), you just need to decrypt it running a new electrum instance and enter your password.
Topic: Electrum why backup wallet? (Read 2225 times)
I don't need to restore my wallet from a backup, right?
If you ever import private keys, those won't be able to be recreated from the seeds.
I have a question about why you backup your wallet with Electrum when all you need are your seed words to restore your wallet?
Computer crashes. All is lost. I do have my seed words. I setup new computer. Install Electrum and enter my seed words in. My wallet is restored. I don't need to restore my wallet from a backup, right?
Thanks
