Title: How do I restore wallet.dat using v0.11.1 (64-bit) Bitcoin Core Post by: jkirwin on March 05, 2019, 02:16:34 AM Can anyone tell me how to restore my backed up wallet.dat file using Bitcoin core v0.11.1 (64-bit)
The only option under "File" is backup....there is no restore option???

If the current wallet.dat have balance, back-up it as well before overwriting.

If you try and restore the file when it is running, there is a high chance you will corrupt the file. |
