When backup your wallet, all you need to backup are :
1. Mnemonic seed. You don't need to remember the password, but anyone can steal your coins if they find out your seed.
2. Wallet files. You need to remember the password if you set the files with password.

Backup wallet application and it's blockchain database (if it's wallet/client with full-nodes functionality) isn't required, but would save your time from re-downloading the application or/and blockchain database.
Also, there's no "login" when you use wallet, except you use centralized wallet/exchange.

Hello all a question about my Wallets. I have a few coins on various wallets on my Desktop. eg NEON, NEM, Cardano etc.

i am trying to clear up space on my Desktop.

Would I be ok to just transfer all the wallets to my External Harddrive? should there be any problems?

Is the transfer easy ? not have to worry about lose logins/passwords etc? files coins?

thanks
