Title: How to recover Electrum password Post by: n1 on April 08, 2013, 05:33:43 PM I forgot the password I used for my Electrum wallet.
Although I do have the 12 words generated, I cannot find how to recover my password. What would be the procedure? Thanks so much! Title: Re: How to recover Electrum password Post by: n1 on April 08, 2013, 07:16:11 PM Please help

I'm not an Electrum expert, so I can't explain how to recover your wallet, but my understanding is that as long as you have the correct 12 words, it should be possible to rebuild the entire wallet. As such, there is no reason to fear/panic yet. I'll link to your post in the Electrum discussion forum so that hopefully an Electrum expert will see it and respond for you.
