I'm confused, why would you prefer to run the full ethereum Node when there are many wallets that can sync with ethereum blockchain without downloading the huge blockchain files?

Be careful of downloading on the internet because probably you may download a phishing site that may lead you from hacking incidents. It is better to use the website upon accessing your ERC20 wallet or ETH wallet. All chrome extension last month suffered from different hacking but this Meta mask wasn't. I didn't hear any major hacks towards them. Make sure you use the official website and here are some tutorials and guides.

it looks like if using the original ethereum wallet will make our assets safe, I've tried it, it's been almost 3 years Ethereum in wallet is safe

Maybe because he wants a safer wallet to protect his investments against the hack. Online browsing wallets, such as the ERC20 MEW or Metamask, are very vulnerable, so you can't keep your long-term investments there. However, instead of occupying the entire hard drive with a desktop wallet, it would be recommended to have a hardware wallet and you have solved the problem.

Myetherwalley has already an app available for download in playstore, or if you don't to use it, there are plenty of good wallet apps to chose from, like lmtoken were you just import your privates keys in order fro you to have an access to your account once again. But I prefer Trustwallet App, same thing with Imtoken import private keys, the only thing that trust wallet stands out to me is that it supports multi-coin.

If you try it on MEW and it's not compactible, maybe you didn't enter it correctly. The wallet you can download the package from it's website is Metamask.io and this has many benefit I consider more beneficial than MEW. I use this to interact with DEX without importing or thing and he Dex never get to see my recovering phrase, Keyfile, Pk and whatever is needed for import.

Hi,
To answer your questions:
Q1: Why not use a browser extension? A1: Never ever no matter what I will absoultely not use such a thing. The layers of prgramming for a browser extension are so high they expose a mountain of vulnerabilities. Only full node or nothing.
Q2: Why desktop app? A2: Because I want to get ready for a full node with 32 ETH staking, if and when this happens; and what I need to do: i don't know (yet).
Q3: Why MyCrypto desktop app and not any other? A3: Because i couldn't find any other, and the only other one I found was MEW and they were reluctant to use the keystores approach.
Q4: Am I sure to have downloaded the right app not a phishing site? A4: Yes i used my own method to cross-check the site, but the MyCrpto app itself has a way to confirm the key signature. It did not use that method because it is confusing as hell and required me to download even more software that could itself have its own problems. So at the moment I am relying only on the authenticity of the site.
So the only problem at the moment is: Mist used to behave well, I open and close the app it remembers my wallet. With MyCrypto: i have to Load the wallet each time I open the app, it does not keep the wallet open.

I haven't use wallet client for bitcoin since 3 years ago. Electrum works just fine and less hassle and the same could be said for Ethereum wallet. Today, metalmask is getting more and more popular so maybe its time to switch to metalmask, just my advice. It has everything you need for an Ethereum wallet to funtion but ease to use. The difference between lightweight wallet client like Electrum and add-on browser wallet like metalmask in terms of security is the same. If you expose your private key/seed, you're fuked on both.

For bitcoin there is Bitcoin Core which downloads the whole blockchain a few hundred gigabytes then you can use the wallet. For Ethereum, there used to be a wallet. I have done a backup of the key stores but now I am trying to download that classic wallet but I can't find a download link. The only nearest thing I found was MyEtherWallet (MEW) but then there is no Download button anywhere on their website, and even whien i try the software version it says Not recommended: https://www.myetherwallet.com/access-my-walletAny help how to get access to a wallet using the backup keystores from the "old"/"classic" wallet? Using myetherwallet why have to download file, you can access with private key only and you need put your private key data to log in on your account, I think its easy way how to access to myetherwallet and sell your fund, you can sell easily and not have to worry with file have to download.

The reason why the Ethereun MEW dont recommended or provided the link to keystores is because of ig vulnerability and most ETH mew user have lost their holding through it. If your situation was about creating a keystroke will advise you to follow this link but if you're trying to log into your old ETH wallet, you can find your wallet private keys inside the keystroke files import it through Metamask.

Personally I like to use Exodus ETH wallet (desktop/mobile) for small amounts. They also have Dapps now like Compound Finance But for more security, hardware wallet with MyEtherWallet/MyCrypto
