Title: Electrum help needed. Post by: Bureau on September 18, 2023, 12:03:43 PM This is a noob question! I downloaded the wallet on my Mac Book today, installed and then created a new wallet. While creating I saw that it showed me, Wallet = default_wallet. I did not understand earlier but later on I realized it meant wallet name. Now, that I have created a wallet, I would like to change this name. My question is how to do it? I do not see any option within the wallet that allows me to do it. I thought of changing the file extension but I concluded that it might corrupt the file.
What can I do now? Should I create a new wallet or can I still change the name? Thanks. Title: Re: Electrum help needed.

There is no need to add or edit any extension.
EDIT: Quote On Mac: Open Finder Go to folder (shift+cmd+G) and type ~/.electrum You should find a wallet folder here which contains the wallet files. If you're scared you might corrupt the file (although I don't see how), just make sure your seedphrase is safe, or take a backup of your wallet first. Title: Re: Electrum help needed.

The wallet name is now changed. Thanks for the help! |
