Mar 8, 2021 at 14:43 comment added RedGrittyBrick @leo: I'd guess it needs the password used to encrypt the key values (if you protected the wallet.dat with a password) But I don't know if Bitcoin Core uses some global encryption provided by the DB library or whether it applies its own encryption to the relevant value contents only (I thought it was the latter but don't actually know for sure). I surmise SQlite might be asking for a global DB password which doesn't apply, might be doing so because it is confused or might be doing so because it wants you to decide if one is needed. I'm not familiar with SQlite

Mar 8, 2021 at 14:35 comment added leo_cape I ran db_dump on the already backed up wallet.dat (sqlite) and it did dump some interesting info ie. I the name of the db 'main' and the keys. I guess thats pretty much all there is in the wallet..? Was hoping to see a visual depiction of the db. I haven't marked this answer as correct yet as I still would like to know which password / key the browser is wanting

Mar 8, 2021 at 14:31 comment added Antoine Poinsot New wallets are using SQLite, since the OP mentioned it they probably using that so i doubt a Berkeley DB tool would work for their use case
