Title: How to remove unconfirmed transaction (dbl spnt) from crypted BTC QT OSX Wallet
Post by: ocminer on May 25, 2013, 08:19:02 AM
Hey folks,

someone with minor experience sent me a transaction, did something wrong, restored a backup and sent another transaction.

The first one confirmed, the second one will never confirm but is stuck in my Qt client at the "unconfirmed transaction" which is bothering me a little bit.

I had the client open while receiving the transactions, this was/is probably the problem.


How can i remove/delete it.. I already tried a "bitcoin.qt.app -reindex" but after hours of reindexing the same transaction shows up - unconfirmed :-(

In 'last' resort, you can use pywallet

AFAIK it does not work with encrypted wallets ...

It does. For months.
And deleting transactions never needed encrypted wallets support.
