"Default_Wallet" keeps cloning itself under a different name, electrum 3.0.5?

[jackg]

Is anyone else having this problem. It's done it three times since I installed it.

My default_wallet is my legacy wallet, I have a bech32 wallet also.

The "default_wallet" file keeps being appended to the recent wallet selection from the "file" menu.

As extra info, I switch between the two just in case the old one is needed. Also, since the last bug of a json API call that can be done, I now encrypt my entire wallet file (instead of just the seed and private keys).

Also, I'm not particularly sure how I'd be able to evidence this without anyone else noticing the same odd issue.

Edit: noticed a 3.0.6 version exists, does anyone know if this bug has been fixed in it? Gone through 3.0-3.0.6 release notes and nothing...

So what you're saying is that there are duplicate entries recently open list? The wallet file itself is not being duplicated right? Have you looked in the wallets directory to make sure? The directory is here: http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/faq.html#where-is-my-wallet-file-located

I have the duplication in the recently open list on my system too with 3.0.6. A testnet wallet is showing up twice. I think you should file a bug report for that. They should only show unique entries there.

Yes it appends this in the config file:
    "recently_open": [
        "C:\\users\\***\\downloads\\electrum_data\\wallets\\default_wallet",
        "C:\\Users\\***\\Downloads\\electrum_data\\wallets\\Default_Wallet",
        "C:\\Users\\***\\Downloads\\electrum_data\\wallets\\Bech32",
        "C:\\Users\\***\\Downloads\\electrum_data\\wallets\\default_wallet"
    ],

default_wallet = Default_Wallet.
I think, as this is Windows, it doesn't cause an error, however, if in linux, there'd be an error if it is on linux (as in Windows "Default_Wallet" as a string in explorer.exe equals "default_wallet").
I'm not sure how this has happened though as it doesn't seem a reasonable thing to have happened.
