I need help.
- password is correct
- I used 2 backups of different dates and reinstalled the program.

The message is appearing when I try to change the password or when I try to send a coin.

file: wallet / crypter.cpp, line 198

How to fix it?

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Your wallet is corrupted. First make a backup of your wallet. Then start Bitcoin Core with the -salvagewallet option.

Please also post the entirety of the debug.log file.

If you are using Windows, right click the shortcut that you are using the start Bitcoin Core and choose Properties. Then in the box labeled Target. Move the cursor to the end and add a space after what is already there. Then add -salvagewallet.

In Macs and Linux, just use the terminal.

I deleted everything I had from the program and block.

And I installed core and did donwload again. I put the bakcup and continue with the error.

Last thing I did was -salvagewallet, but the same problem remains.

What can I do?
