Title: [PPC] Backing Up Wallet Post by: peepee on November 13, 2012, 03:46:59 PM When I use ppcoind backupwallet, where is the .dat file saved? What is the proper way to specify exactly where the .dat file is?
I know I have backed up numerous times, but I have no idea where they are stored. I have manually backed up the .dat file in APPDATA just in case. Title: Re: [PPC] Backing Up Wallet Post by: Sunny King on November 13, 2012, 04:37:54 PM backupwallet command must be supplied with destination file.
sunny> ppcoind help backupwallet backupwallet <destination> Safely copies wallet.dat to destination, which can be a directory or a path with filename. Directly copying wallet.dat is not a 100% safe backup. The copied file may not be flushed, thus restoring could fail with database error in db.log.

On windows it seems to require adding quotes around the file name: ppcoind backupwallet "C:\walletbackup.dat" |
