What? You're talking about receiving your Verge coins from changelly right? Then why are you trying to recover your electrum and ethereum wallet though?

Electrum is for bitcoin. You cant store your verge on electrum and on whatever ethereum wallet. You can only store your Verge on a verge wallet. Download your verge wallet at: https://vergecurrency.com

Exactly... the Electrum forked version for Verge which is the only one that can be found at the website. lol

How many words are you writing? There should be 9.

Why can't you open your wallet? The wallet isn't there or Electrum isn't opening?

Go to %appdata%/Electrum-XVG/wallets and see if there is any file there. If there is:

1. First backup it because that's your wallet.
2. Open it with a text editor and copy the "seed" string found at the bottom.
3. Check if this seed is the same as the one you tried to write before.
