user116589: I set a password to encrypt my wallet, all good.  But I can't seem to backup my wallet.  I try and nothing happens.
Does the backup function give me keys or the seed words?

user208: It creates a copy of the wallet file.
Bitcoin Core doesn't support recovery from just a key or seed phrase (at least, not yet).
