Shit updated my wallet, did something wrong and my 22k emc gone  Sad?

I drag wallet.dat out of emc folder and then put it back, (in the \appdata) after downloading the new wallet, and balance is 0 after syncin.. first time trying to upg. to a new wallet, guess i fucked something up :/
I can't say if something can be done.  But the proper procedure is to ALWAYS BACK UP WALLET. And then just install the update. No touching of anything necessary.

And in the event that something bad happened while updating wallet (not sure I ever witnessed a wallet overwriting wallet.dat while updating), well you have your backed up key anyways.

Now... in your wallet, do you still see your old receiving address, or its a new one?

It's a new one, well I guess lesson learnt the hard way huh?
I just edited my post, please re - read to confirm.

Also, do you still have the original wallet.dat you dragged? Or you simply just drag and dropped back in, therefore have no copy of it?


Yeah that's how I did it, and drag and dropped it back in so nop, no copy..
Is it possible that the wallet.dat got somehow fucked, if I did drag it into appdata while the new wallet was still syncin?
If it was syncing what may have happened is that the old wallet.dat didn't copy over because of restricted access while in use. Nonetheless, copying while syncing is def what screwed it up. HOWEVER. Keep that wallet.dat (copy it). Delete the whole file and delete the wallet .exercise file and reinstall. Before even opening it copy paste the old wallet.dat back into the new appdata.

Also. Does the wallet.dat have a different timestamp than the rest of the files in the folder or a different one ( by the second)

The timestamp is shows it's the new folders .dat file, but I'll give it a shot one more time, pretty sure I fucked it up somehow along the way.. no big deal, I guess I can buy 'em back Smiley..

Thanks for the help anyhow =)

Yeah that's how I did it expect I let the new wallet sync first and then drag and dropped it back in so nop, no copy..
