I have the Windows 10 blue screen of death. What file do I need to extract from my hard drive to be able to back up my litecoins. Also where can this file be found. Thanks 
Hola
You need to backup your wallet.dat file.
I’m not sure where is it located at windows. I suppose it’s in AppData.
I hope you can find it by yourself with that information, anyway I’ll come back tomorrow and try to be more specific.

Yeah thanks I ended up finding it out myslef but to all those who might want to know.
Go to Windows Search in the start menu
Then search for %AppData%
Press enter
Then go to the file "Litecoin"
Find the file "Wallet.dat"
Then save this file to you desired location.
The full url for the file is:
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Litecoin

Please can you tell me how to get my litecoins back from wallet.dat?? My litecoin core wallet is empty after a recovery install of Windows X. The back up is also empty! When I install the backup I get the last version of the wallet> empty after filling in the password.
Was it a cold storage solution?
