Encrypt your wallet for safety.
To encrypt the wallet, go to Settings > Encrypt wallet. Enter the passphrase, click ok. You will then have to restart the wallet and then go to Settings > Unlock Wallet and then enter the passphrase to unlock the wallet, for staking, controlling the masternode or sending FSSCOIN.
Choose a LONG/STRONG password. Write it down or save it somewhere OFFLINE.

Backup your wallet for safety.
Save to multiple locations. Encrypted USB drives are ideal.
Masternode Setup
