listdescriptors true + Getting private keys from wallet

Hi all, it has been a while since I messed with bitcoin. I sent the bitcoin I have to a new wallet via bitcoin 26.0 on my Ubuntu machine, and now tried to load it on BitCoin Core 27.0...had to restore it, worked fine. My password works.

I'm trying to get the private key, or more importantly, some kind of information from this wallet just in case I lose the wallet file or forget the password. A highly unlikely event. I'd like to get those keys, print it and put that piece of paper in a safe.

I did "listdescriptors true" and see the output. I'm not sure which one of these outputs is the private key. Anyone know how to get the information I want for backup reasons?

Edit: LOL, already got a private message from someone "wanting a screenshot". Wow.
