Hello,

I have recently registered a username on the ring blockchain. The computer I 
did this on has since crashed but I DO have a backup of the following..


/.cache

/.config

/.local


But when I try to copy these into my new OS, ring will not recognize them and 
forces me to create a new profile/username.


The 'dring.yml' appears to be encrypted and I'm wondering if that is the 
issue?? I do have the 'add new device' password, export.gz, and private keys to 
this account. Is this enough to recover this username??


And another question is.. What is the recommended backup procedure??


I read another post about lost usernames and I imagine a LOT of usernames will 
indeed be lost, and if ring ever takes off, eventually this username feature 
will become useless if it is not possible to recover, backup, and/or recycle 
expired usernames.


I also want to say thank you to the Ring team. I absolutely love the idea 
behind this software and really appreciate how much effort you guys are putting 
into it. I feel if Ring can get a fair shake that it could be to modern 
communication what the telephone was when it was invented.


Thanks,

Brett
