very helpful article, thank you. therefore, I stand guard by backing up my keystore file, between the PC and the external hard drive. so I'm calmer by having a back-up.

Thanks for the instructions. Never thought about making a Keystore file for my 3rd party ethereum wallets such as the wallet of Blockchain and Parity. I will note this adress and bookmark it and i will get back to it later. Thanks alot Op, you saved my coins and tokens. 😅🙏

This is a good insight and procedure But for newbies please ensure you do not try this if you do not understand how it works
You can secure your MyEtherWallet the Normal way by protecting your private key

I think it is quite risky to submit your private key on other website to get the keystore. Just use your metamask and import the wallet using private key you own. Honestly, using private key or keystore everytime you login is not a good way to using your wallet.

I rarely use MEW, saving the keystore-file or private key on the computer is very unsafe. Moreover, managing many wallets with MEW is quite complicated
