about if the wallet was updated to the new version because the local data can still be

available. However, it’s necessary to backup your private key as it’s the last chance for you

to recover accounts and assets at any time, especially in case of disk formatting, Operating

System reloading, local data deletion. Chapter 4 will show more details about backup.

You need to create a new password when you first use, at least 8 characters, preferably

mixing digits, letters and other symbols. Then you can access you accounts after password

setting up.

The password will be invariable even if the wallet upgraded to new version, but it

should be reset when local data is deleted. We suggest you record your password and keep

it safe in two different locations.
