Hi. I suggest 2 updates - **see the bold text** - for the following page:  
[Node-RED backup](https://github.com/node-red/cookbook.nodered.org/wiki/How-to-backup-flows-and-related-configuration)

`flows_*.json` & `flows_*_cred.json` **in case you don't use projects.**

.config.json **or since version 1.20 .config.\*.json**  
This contains **your credentials (if set)** and the current configuration ...
