Thanks for the reply
Was trying to understand why both wallets are behaving different. If I ask my wallet to read the seed it asks for my password and reveals it. If I ask the new wallet it asks for the password and reveals a big long code of numbers and letters.

Hello really need some help with my wallet

My partner was using her wallet and has lost her password. I think we found her seed and I used the seed to generate a new wallet. It has not worked as the balance  on the new wallet is zero.

I am not sure if something is wrong if I use the new electrum wallet to read the seed it asks for my password and comes up with a long number. If I do the same thing for my my wallet it reveals my seed.

Hope I explained that OK. Anyone got any ideas please

Thank you
