hey can someone please help me. i am running bitcoin core v0.15.0.1
i have used -zapwalletxes a long time ago to clear an unconfirmed sent transaction, but this time i unknowningly put -zapwalletxes after Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" (Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -zapwalletxes) instead of Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" --zapwallettxes=1. it opened the wallet in a minute or 2 and it is totally blank.

(i edited the properties then opened bitcoin qt)

and now my wallet only shows my last receiving transaction and my balance. its all completely blank now

any help is appreciated. i will have a back up of my wallet somewhere, but it will be a month or 2 old if that matters

thanks in advance

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Just restart with -rescan... It will rescan all the blocks looking for transactions that involve your wallet addresses.

This should rebuild your transaction history and balance.

Note: this will take a while as it has to scan all the way from the genesis block... Also, if you're running in "pruned" mode, you'll end up effectively downloading the entire blockchain again as you don't have the block data on disk any more
