Probably some sort of issue with the app/wallet file, have you got your seed to restore the wallet with?

It might be a fault with the application itself so I'd recommend getting the latest version from electrum.org and make sure your verify the signature.

What operating system are you using. There are tutorials at the bottom of that page for windows or mac, it's a good idea to search how to verify it on your specific os if it isn't one of those as it varies between them afaik.

Did you wrote down your wallet seed when creating your wallet?

When i wirte

The easiest choice is to restore from seed. If you don't have the seed, then:
1. Try some combinations around what you think that you have written. In the way you wrote "wirte" here, you may have been mistyping something in the password too.
2. Check for various combinations with caps lock on-off, num lock on-off, or, if you use sometimes other keyboard layouts (like English/German) try to switch those too.

However, keep a copy for the old wallet file at least until you properly recover the wallet and you are certain you have (spend) access to all the funds.
