About missing transactions in an old wallet!

[guilgamesh]

Hello!

I've already the same problem, sometimes when I download a new windows QT, there is no transactions appears in the list!
but when I dump the wallet, that show me a list of transactions that they had mined since 2015! (in the txt file)

I'll try everything, like try to dumpwallet, importwallet or importprivkey, I'll try too a reindex and resendwallettransactions (in command line at startup)
Don't have any effects.

Is there any tips to recovery my transactions?

thank's!

Sounds like your wallet isn't in sync. Check if there is still the progress bar on the bottom of the client.

Did you try to look up the address in a block explorer, just to confirm that there were transactions (and that there was a balance or if it was sent out)? There is a (unlikely) possibility the txt file was for another wallet.

Dumping the wallet does dump the private keys of your wallet. There shouldn't be any transactions visible in the dumped file.

Are you trying to recover your BTC's (which seem to be missing in your eyes) ?
Or are you trying to recover the transactions inside your wallet (so that they show up in a list) ?

Do what buwaytress said, check the balance of your transactions in a block explorer (e.g. Blockcypher or blockchain.info).

Usually you will see your balance and all transaction after core has synced.

I believe older wallets generated addresses on the fly, meaning that if you lost your most recent copy, your new addresses are lost.

They do. They generates the address whenever you unlock your wallet if your keypool is less than X addresses.

If you're pressing New Address in your wallet, you are basically obtaining an address that has been generated in the past from the keypool. The keypool at that time is 100 by default and it is 1000, right now. You will be safe even if you lose your most recent copy of your wallet.dat but you must not have made more than X (100 or 1000) transactions.
