I think some weeks ago I was talking with out this same problem... I am sad you still have that problem.In version 1.2.2 they added a command for recovering old wallets, I am not sure if back in time I suggested you already this solution: Legacy wallets (those previous to version 0.3.3, when wallets didn't have a recovery seed) can be accessed in v1.2.2 by typing this command on the UI terminal: "siac wallet load 033x (path of the wallet file)". If you access it, I strongly recommend you to move your funds to a new address that uses a seed for recovery Let's say I want to give some of my free space on HDD.
What is the uptime requirement?
I understand there's a 2000 collaterel, e.g., but there's no chance in hell I'm gonna host files on sia network and lose all of my monthly revenue and collateral if I have half a day of internet problems.
I am pretty sure the up time requirement is greater than 99%. This should only be done on a machine that is up all the time basically. Then this coin is bullshit and nobody's gonna let others store files on it  Amazon standard has a 25 % refund policy under 98% of uptime. If you do the math, with 2000 sia collateral, on a 6-7 Terabyte hosting I'm gonna lose more than I make if I failt to keep 98% uptime. And amazon can offer a very high uptime thanks to multiple nodes across the US. Still even Amazon has major disruptions of service. Still remember many websites not working this february across the globe (including github). https://aws.amazon.com/it/message/41926/So now, tell me, do you really think I'm gonna lose 2000 sia of collateral because I have half an afternoon of power or internet problem to host somebody's files on my pc? No. Fuckin. Way. 2000 of a collateral is much too higher of a price. I obviously understand the point of the collateral, but there's basically nobody in this forum that can guarantee a 98%+ uptime a month for an entire year. ... Can't you really afford 2000SC (about $25) to set up your collateral budget as a host, seriously??? If you can't guarantee an uptime of 97%, then definitely hosting is not for you. It is the files of people and companies what you are going to host, so if you can't establish a serious hosting operation... better don't do it, it is important files what you are risking, not just your pennies in Sia. Hosting is not a game for an afternoon, buddy, it is a bussiness Most of us can actually guarantee even higher uptimes. 97% (the uptime goal) represents up to a full day of downtime in a month: totally achievable. You can't expect to run your host in home computer or laptop you just turn on from time to time: you need a dedicated machine for hosting |

Hi, the non-used part of your allowance should be returned by the end date of your file contracts. So even if you have deleted the files in advance, if you made file contracts for longer times, they will be locked until contracts finish |

Nothing wrong at my node: fully sync and receiving and broadcasting blocks as usual........ (?) Are you downloading the blockchain the first time? It can take 2-3 days to fully sync it in HHDs (about 1 day on SSDs) |

txn ib blocks got confirmed very fast to me only delay is the syncing of blockchain... at moment there is a downloable patch to speed it up in future updates the plan is to reduce the sync time completely |

Hi, the non-used part of your allowance should be returned by the end date of your file contracts. So even if you have deleted the files in advance, if you made file contracts for longer times, they will be locked until contracts finish The length of the file contracts was a 3 months. Now its 3 months later and the rest of the ammount is still alocated. Has the sia-tech some support ? |

Devs do not check bitcointalk regularly. Go to the Slack and ask it to the devs (@taek, @johnathanhowell...): https://siatalk.slack.com/messagesThe length of the file contracts was a 3 months. Now its 3 months later and the rest of the ammount is still alocated.
Has the sia-tech some support ?
That is very weird, Your funds must be back in your wallet. Are you sure your client is fully sync to the blockchain? Yes, they are answering questions all the time at the Slack. Go there to the #help channel: https://siatalk.slack.com/messagesIs there any profit calculator?
