Describe the bug

I just noticed now that my ID (public key, and so also private key) silently was changed by MC-Term.

I do not know when.

I updated to v0.9.12.3, created a backup on-device, enabled WebUI (which deleted all my contacts), restored backup, ...

But I suspect that the change was later, because at some point direct messages just failed to get an ACK, and only after I have sent out an advert they were able to be delivered again.

I did some playing around with local clock and did reboots.

Which device are you using

LilyGO T-Deck Plus

Which Firmware are you using

v0.9.12.3

Fixed in v0.9.14

At start-up the device looks for your key on SD, internal storage, the SD copy and the latest backup before it ever makes a new one.
