OK I need help. I was trying to setup a MN last night and sent 200k to the address created in the console. I couldn't get the MN started and so how do I get my coins back? The total amount in the wallet is correct by not in coin control. I guess they are locked now in that address. How do I get them back out so I can stake them?
Try shutting down the wallet, delete the masternode.conf file (or rename it if you want to keep a backup), then restart the wallet.
yes, I did that and I even saved my wallet.dat file and deleted roaming folder and did a full resync. Still not available. heeeeelp!! I hope I didn't just lose 200k.
check in the explorer, see if the coins show up to that address
get the address you sent the coins to, eg M123xxxxxxxxxxxxetcetc
go to the debug console, and get the privkey
dumpprivkey M123xxxxxxxxxxxxetcetc
this will give you the private key, if you have that key, means that address is in the wallet but possibly not showing up properly.
sounds a bit odd though if you have done a full resync. did you remember to keep the original wallet.dat in the datadirectory when you did the resync??
