Hello,
I had an older version of Electrum installed on this computer but a different HD and used it in 2013 and 2014 but not since then. I've installed a new hard drive with a new operating system and today I downloaded the Electrum Standalone executable. This new hard drive has never had any Bitcoin software or data put on it. You could say it is a Bitcoin virgin.
When I opened the Electrum for the first time it immediately displayed all my data, transactions, etc from my Electrum folder in a hidden user/app data/roaming which was encrypted on another hard drive and different OS. How can this be?? How did my data appear on a fresh install on a fresh hard drive with a new operating system?? Can someone explain how that could possibly happen?? It has shaking my trust and belief to my very core! Any input or suggestions on how this could happen will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Bill
