the seed is shown first before you get to enter the password so what you are saying doesn't make sense. did you download electrum from electrum.org?
Hm, yes creating of the seed was shown before then password... I can not remember all dialog in details but it is. An I did not seen the face of a program because of that password issue...
And yes, I have downloaded it from from electrum.org
What if I will uninstall and try again will it create new seed? wallet?
Thanks a lot
Uninstalling it won't change anything. The wallets are stored in your home directory and uninstalling electrum only removes the binaries. It doesn't remove the wallet(s). The wallet directory is given below:

If you like you can delete the old wallets. Some users make the mistake of receiving bitcoins to wallets they can't spend from so it may be better to delete any unused wallet files so that you don't make that mistake. Otherwise if you just want to create a new wallet use file > new/restore. If it doesn't show the menus at all then you will have to delete or rename the default_wallet file found in the wallets directory above first.
Oh thanks a lot! I have reinstalled, then renamed default wallet to the name I have created in the very first steps and now password accepted and, finally, I have program opened.
