Import or Export Private Keys to/from Your Wallet
Whenever adding a new address or importing any private key(s), you MUST create a new backup as all your previous backups will not contain the private keys for the newly added/imported addresses!
Arizen wallet has the option to export or import Private keys.
- You can use this option if you want to export or import more than one private key. If you want to import/export, click on "File" in the
- menu bar. There are options to "Export private keys" and "Import private keys", as you can see in
- Figure 1.
- 15. The Private keys are exported in *.txt format, and
- must be imported in the same format.
