Electrum STUCKED

[RabbiD]

Hi everyone, years ago created a portable linux Mint USB with electrum inside, now I tried to send some coins and the title bar says "Watching Only"
So, want to know if this is because the client is too old or something else.
When I click on "Seeds" says theres no seed on a pop-up.

Need to know if there's a way to recover my coins inside with Electrum or the Bitcoin Client from the wallet.dat file.

Thanks in advance to everyone

watching only wallets are exactly what the name implies. you can't spend the money there because the wallet doesn't have the seed with which to generate private keys for your addresses. so unless you noted down the seed or have a seeded wallet file (not watching-only) you can't spend those coins and they are lost forever.

If you created private keys on a live mint USB then there is no way to recover said private keys unless you wrote them down or added them to another wallet. It sounds like you only added the advises as watch only addresses, meaning you didn't import your private keys, meaning the bitcoins are now lost.

may I ask how you created this wallet?
to create a watching only wallet, you need to enter a master public key or some bitcoin addresses.
