This forum board is for the official Electrum version.

As far as I know, FuturoCoin (FTO) have its own Electrum fork (https://newsroom.futurocoin.com/2-new-wallets-for-fto/).
Where did you downloaded your electrum? If its addresses starts with "F", that should be fine unless the wallet is a scam after all (its gitHub source was still hidden)

There's couple of similar possible reasons with the official version, namely:
1. Your Electrum client isn't synced to any server, check the lower right icon if it's red(disconnected) or green(connected).
2. Try to wait for at least 1 confirmation and check if the tx went through.

For others, you should ask their own forum or official thread.

There is only one official electrum. It can be downloaded from https://electrum.org/#home (https://electrum.org/#home) and is a BTC (only) wallet.

Anything else has been forked and modified. Without reviewing the code, you are trusting some random stranger to provide you a wallet..

Running it in compatibility mode should work fine.. But why don't you simply get the 64 bit version ?

Before anything else check that address you sent this coin is part of your wallet, click on address tab and confirm that it is 100% the exact address. Then if this is confirmed try to change server you are connected, click on green/red point and select server manually from the list, it may take some time to blockchain_headers file is downloaded, but it not should take too long.

From where you download wallet ? I check official site and there is link for Electrum FTO, version 3.1.2 - https://futurocoin.com/

If your funds are in one of your address as you can see in the blockexplorer, there will be no problem unless there's "something" in that Electrum FuturoCoin fork.

Better make a backup in case of emergency:
To make a backup (paper-wallet), simply get the Private key of that particular address by: showing the address tab(view->address tab), right click on the funded address and select "Private Key", Enter your password then copy its private key and the address to a piece of paper.

You simply cannot "see" your FTO coins because of an unknown issue of that wallet but your funds are there as long as the blockexplorer displays the last txo as 'unspent' or your address has balance.

Most likely it is simply because the FTO Electrum network does not have very good servers... I'd suggest contacting the developers of the wallet via GitHub (or other users on the FuturoCoin forums or thread) and asking them for some FTO Electrum servers that you can try and connect to.

Without decent servers, the FTO Electrum won't work properly and will be slow and unreliable. :(
