Hi Everyone,

So I noticed that when I make a backup of onlykey on the personal profile, it differs from the work profile.

Is that just a hash thing? Or onlykey backup the unlocked profile only, and thus I have to back up both profiles?

Profiles are a way of organizing your accounts. A backup from either profile backs up both profiles into a single backup.
