If after importing the watch-only wallet on system "C", you can simply delete the watch-only wallet on system "B" if you like.

<p>I have set up an offline wallet on computer "A". I set up a corresponding watching-only wallet on computer "B". I have signed and broadcast several transactions. But now I wish to safely move the watching-only wallet to a different computer "C". Then delete the watching-only from computer "B".</p>

<ul>
<li>Should I import a digital/paper wallet backup of the watching-only wallet? Is this enough to ensure all existing adddresses and BTC are moved?</li>
<li>Or should I copy the actual .wallet file manually? </li>
</ul>

<p>Can this proces be repeated without issues?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

# Moving armory watching-only .wallet file

(Asked by: username_0 on 2013-11-15)

I have set up an offline wallet on computer "A". I set up a corresponding watching-only wallet on computer "B". I have signed and broadcast several transactions. But now I wish to safely move the watching-only wallet to a different computer "C". Then delete the watching-only from computer "B".

* Should I import a digital/paper wallet backup of the watching-only wallet? Is this enough to ensure all existing adddresses and BTC are moved?
* Or should I copy the actual .wallet file manually?

Can this proces be repeated without issues?

Thanks

You can just import the watching-only wallet on system "C". In fact, no reason to remove it from system "B" (if you don't want to). It's okay to have multiple "watchers" of a given wallet. Moving the watching-only wallets around doesn't actually move the coins, it just changes which computers recognize coins for which the offline computer has signing authority.
