If a message "no backup copy yet" is displayed next to the list then you have not yet made a backup of the selected account. We recommend that you make a backup of every account to an external drive. This will protect your credit from data loss. By clicking either the message itself or the button "Backup" you can save the selected account.
You can take the following actions:
Lets you create a new account. The process of creating a new account may take a while because a complex cryptographic process has to be started. This is necessary for the process to be confidential and to ensure information integrity. During the creation process you may be asked a security question. The actual creation process depends on the method of payment that you have chosen. Please follow the instructions on-screen. When your account has been successfully created it will appear in the account list.
IMPORTANT: Please save your account to an external drive after creation, e.g. an USB stick. It will protect you from data loss.
Here you can view a list of the transactions for all the accounts. There can only be one transaction per account. You can delete an empty account that you have not paid for or that you have depleted anytime. You may also create one or more new accounts whenever you want.

If you want to erase your password, click "Change password" and
enter nothing as your new password.

the remaining volume on your selected account,
the previous overall consumption,
the amount that you have paid in and

ATTENTION: If there is any positive balance left on your account it will be irretrievably lost if you did not make a backup copy.
This button saves the selected account data to a file. This is useful when you need to regain access to your account after a complete data loss or you have reinstalled JonDo or the whole OS. This is why you should copy the exported file to an external media (e.g. an USB stick).
