I have same problem.
Comment 2 K.Kong 2018-02-22 04:12:28 UTC
I face a slightly different problem with the back up.

If I export without explicitly specifying a folder, it says successful but the file is nowhere to be found.

It works ok if I select a folder explicitly to store the gpg file.

Is there an option to make a back up or extract the private key once I close this dialog?
