Howdy I have a problem all my xmr is missing I tried to restore the wallet but its just not showing my balance over 350 usd worth
-
SeanGolden[m]
the wallet address and backup phrase i used and did restore from block 1 but still not seeing it
-
moneromooo
When you restored it, did it ask for a restore height ?
-
SeanGolden[m]
its been almost a week
-
moneromooo
OK, block 1 is good.
-
moneromooo
Are you really sure it's the right wallet ?
-
selsta
Do you see a transaction history?
-
SeanGolden[m]
but when i restored it, it has given me a different address than what i had before
-
selsta
Is it a Ledger wallet? Trezor?
-
SeanGolden[m]
ya i chose 1
-
SeanGolden[m]
no just the gui
-
selsta
What happened to the old wallet file?
-
SeanGolden[m]
hey i still have the one i backed up it has all 25 words but when i chose to restore it now i have a totally different address
-
SeanGolden[m]
but the backup text has the address i had backed up and saved
-
SeanGolden[m]
makes no sense
-
selsta
do you still have the wallet.keys saved?
-
SeanGolden[m]
ya thats what i used
-
SeanGolden[m]
thats why im tripping out
-
SeanGolden[m]
my original address was 49HbaVRrNSvSXoPsxpUEqi2iAv7ZS8Ciu1PejUJX2V9Y4aYK6nmXQMB9eqswahsA9bfezpzpR4P55W9fhGvQrg3eGuQwva7

i sent it from cake wallet
-
SeanGolden[m]
and can see the transaction
-
selsta
open the wallet.keys file, go to settings and look at the seed
-
selsta
then compare the seed with the one you have written down
-
SeanGolden[m]
ya im hoping i just have another text file saved that i forgot about
-
SeanGolden[m]
otherwise i dunno other than opening a bank dispute on it
-
selsta
cake wallet can display the seed: Click on the 3 lines icon, then "Show seed/keys", enter your PIN and compare the 25 word seed with the one you have written down
-
SeanGolden[m]
found this C:\Users\toxinburn83\Documents\Monero\wallets\toxinburn83
-
SeanGolden[m]
i think that was the original it has several wallets maybe its in one of these keys files
-
selsta
open every one of them and look for the correct address
-
selsta
then write down the correct seed
-
SeanGolden[m]
they are encrypted it looks like
-
SeanGolden[m]
but i could make new ones and use the keys file right?
-
selsta
you have to open the wallet file with the gui
-
SeanGolden[m]
ya these keys match the new address but the old address is in this text file too freakin weird
-
SeanGolden[m]
okay so i can open stuff from the keys files lemme get started wish me luck
-
SeanGolden[m]
found the one with right address
-
SeanGolden[m]
says its in view only though
-
SeanGolden[m]
so gonna let it sync and try to figure out how to change that
-
SeanGolden[m]
so i can get my money back lol
-
SeanGolden[m]
thats why their is no mnemonic seed
-
SeanGolden[m]
cause it was a view only i set it up messed up i guess it was the first time i had used this particular wallet
-
SeanGolden[m]
hopefully when the blocks are done i will see the balance finally and have to use cli to convert it to a spendable wallet
-
SeanGolden[m]
the view only has no 25 word seed
-
SeanGolden[m]
but its def the right address on this one
