Hi

It’s quite what the topic subject says…

There might be a better/more secure way of doing it, but I usually just do this:

[ol][li]File -> Backup Wallet in Peerunity on old computer and save to USB stick[/li]
[li]Download Peerunity on new computer and then close application[/li]
[li]Find the wallet.dat on new computer (%appdata%\PPCoin on Windows, ~./ppcoin on linux, Mac) and delete it[/li]
[li]Replace it with wallet.dat from USB[/li]
[li]Open Peerunity[/li][/ol]

I assume this is fine, maybe someone can correct me if it isn’t. Have another backup of your wallet somewhere anyway just in case.

If you’re technical (and on a Unix-like OS), using the scp command is more secure than using a USB drive, but that’s a personal choice depending on your level of paranoia security consciousness.
