Title: Electrum Wallet 2.8.2 Password Issues
Post by: platinumsteel2016 on April 12, 2017, 11:06:52 PM
Greetings,

I had made three different electrum wallets because the wallet does not reconize the password. It continues
to say invalid password. When I first create a password, the wallet accepts it. Then I decides to view my seed.
The wallet asks for my password. I insert the password, everything is fine. But when I close the wallet, then decide to open it back up and I  decide I want to view my seed, it prompts me to insert the password. When
I type in the password this time I get an error message stating "Invalid Password"....s there something I should have done before closing the program perhaps...I am TOTALLY confused!!! I hope to hear from anyone that can assist me soon as possible.
Best regards,

I doubt that closing the program caused this problem. Have you tried to recover your wallet using the seed? I assume you have it written down somewhere.

Use file> open to open the correct wallet file. The window title will list which wallet file you have open at any time.

Second stop setting passwords if you can't make that feature work for you. You don't have to set a password!
