No, this option doesn't seem to exist for MultiBit. Nevermind, I'll try to forget those 0.4 DGC...
THANKS anyone for the help provided !
My understanding was that, as this original wallet was able to at first create this address based on my private key, it should be possible to tell MultiBit to create a new one with this SAME address and not a random one, thus providing access to the lost coins. But I think I'm not enough into cryptography to understand the whole thing right. Or perhaps someone with better knowledge would be able to recover these coins, but anyway, I'm glad I wasn't talking about 200 BTC... ;-)
I'll better check my backups from now. Was a long time I didn't loose anything, but it's a good thing life manages to remember us the importance of good backups...
Kind regards

Please, could someone categorically certify these coins are lost ? I'd rather no more think about and definitely consider them as lost if I knew there's no way...
0.2 BTC to anyone able to help me recover the lost BTC in this ~0.39 BTC transaction (so 50%), knowing I still have the original wallet, it's passphrase and the transaction address showing the ~0.39 BTC.
If it's possible, please help me and cash the reward. Otherwise just tell me I'm a stupid idiot and I wont even bother as it's deserved...

You mean "Reset Blockchain and Transactions" ?
Already tried that, but would love to hear there's still another way... What do you mean by Repair Wallet command ?

You're right, MultiBit (using version 0.5.16) doesn't allow deleting a receiving address. I perhaps don't recall right. But then, how come my wallet doesn't display this address anymore ?
I have 6 wallet backups around the time the problem occured, but loading any of these 6 backups doesn't show this address anymore.
If there's still a way to recover these coins (as I still have access to the original file) I would really appreciate the help and reward that. But I think I just have to stop dreaming, right ?

Thanks for your answers !
So there really is no chance I ever recover this address, although it got generated by the wallet I still posess ?
I'm missing the private key to this address, right ? No chance to ever get it back ?

Hello,
Such a dumbass! I'm currently learning on the steep curve...
Please confirm I really lost my BTC, here's the short story :
- In MultiBit, I created a new receive address and someone sent me 0.4 BTC to it. - After that I deleted this receiving address from the client (yes, I did this! Was thinking I will not re-use it anymore) before the client got closed, thus not allowing it to produce an updated wallet backup containing this address.
Now, the only I have is my original wallet (without the given receiving address). I have access to this wallet no problem, but this 0.4 BTC transaction is lost forever, right ?
There isn't any chance to re-add the deleted address to this wallet, isn't it ?
THANKS A LOT for your insights as I'm currently quite lost. But at least learning... :-(
