If you are using WM Keeper v. 2.4.0.1 or higher:

1) Make sure you have the file with your secret keys (in versions 2.4.0.1-2.4.0.3 the file is called a «backup copy») and that you know the access code for the file (in versions 2.4.0.1-2.4.0. it is called «backup copy password»).

If you don't have the secret keys file or not sure you know the access code, then make a new file while you still have a functional WM Keeper.

To make a new file in WM Keeper go to Menu -> Settings -> Options -> Security -> Save keys to a file. Be careful when entering the access code for the file since it will be saved on your computer and won’t be registered by our server. That is, if you forget your code, we won’t be able to help you restore it.  Roughly speaking, forgetting your access code is like zipping your keys to a password-protected archive and then forgetting the password. You are the only one who knew the password and if you forget it, the file is useless.

2) It is desirable to make a backup copy of the purses file (file with the pwm extension). Losing the file is not that critical. You can locate the file in WM Keeper (Menu -> Settings -> Options -> Security). Click on "Save purses to a file".

3) Remember your WM ID and password. Make sure you can access the e-mail account you specified in your WMID registration. You can look up the e-mail address in Menu -> Settings -> Personal information… -> More….

4) After you reinstall Windows (or change PC) you will need to:
