On Debian the key 2 is not restored correctly.

STR:

1. rm -rf ~/.config/brave
2. Open the browser
3. Enable Payments
4. Save your Payments backup keys
5. Close the browser
6. rm -rf ~/.config/brave
7. Open the browser,
8. Enable Payments
9. Recover your wallet and Import recovery keys
10. Click Backup your wallet

Actual result:

Clicking the second Copy button prompts this error on Terminal:

An uncaught exception occurred in the main process Uncaught Exception:

I reopened the issue but if that is a different issue, please let me know. I'll open another one for that.

@luixxiul same as #9740 ?

[luixxiul]

It looks so, but I'm not sure if the log for that issue is not present.

Closing because the original reported issue was fixed. You can recover your wallet. I'll add notes from above to #9740
