Hello everyone,

I have 12 wallets installed on my pc / tablet (Asus Transformer under Win 10). At the time, for the sake of mobility, I thought it would be a good idea to install my portfolios
but I had not thought about the disk space needed for all these wallets.
So I would like to know if there is a way to transfer these wallets to an external hard drive that I could use on any pc?


The Wallets : Bytecoin Wallet, DeepOnion Wallet, MyetherWallet, EthereumDark Wallet, Iota Wallet, Jaxx, Metaverse Wallet, Monero Wallet, ODN Wallet, Ripple Wallet, Waves Wallet et XEM (XEM) Wallet
They are installed directly in a folder "wallets" on my desktop except Monero, Ripple and Jaxx that I installed at the time in folder C: / programs


Thank you in advance for your help and please excuse my English  Wink

First thing you need is to backup these wallets. You can see that option in every wallet that you mention. Keep these backup files and transfer them over your external hard drive. Afterwards, download all these wallets to your external hard drive, install, and restore these wallets by using the backups you used earlier. It's not really hard to do it, but be sure that your hard drive is secure and isn't compromised in any way.

the only thing you need to move are your addresses and private keys, you don't need the entire wallet.. just the "key" to your wallet. Anything like a notepad can work, just write it on and save it on a USB - make sure not to have the USB connected to your computer thought! Otherwise you might as well leave it plain on your desktop
