1. don't panic 2. take a deep breath 3. do what jommy said:
Remember to backup the (corrupted) wallet just in case. Then place one of your backups in said directory and rename it wallet.dat
backups will take some 100 transactions before going out of sync, so you're probably good with your latest backup.
Anyway don't panic, if you have your backups, you're 99% fine.
Thank YOU jommy and mtrycz. It might be working. It appears to be automatically syncing in classic mode. Thank YOU more than mere words can express. No problem, man The moment you said you had backups I knew you were golden. It's not like you had an ssd failure or something xD I do not know exactly how to put this, and I hope it doesn't confuse anyone, but I had a helluva time winning this battle. But, with your help, somehow I prevailed. I got everything where it belonged in the folder yet it was still all chingered up. I even downloaded the 3.0.2.0 again. Nothing. I did indeed have everything right in the %appdata% folder, but I had renamed my backup data "wallet.dat" ~ I remember noticing that when I downloaded the new 3.0.2 it only had "wallet" listed. I took off the .dat from my backup and it just all popped into place. I do not exactly get it. I don't have to. I got my wallet back. It's a true testimonial to THIS GREAT COMMUNITY and how necessary it is to backup, backup, backup. And I also learned, when or if you ever change your encrypted password, that all the backups with the old password will be rendered useless. You may know all of this, I realize. But, if a rookie like me can do this, ANYONE can do it. OMG and a half. I just HAS to be a sign of good things to come, damnit! Happy to hear you are back in business with your Pandacoin Bank and Balances! I am guessing your file explorer view settings are the windows default and don't show file extensions for known file types (I forget about this since I change it right away so I always see my file type extensions like .dat .txt etc). Your wallet.dat was most likely wallet.dat without the .dat showing then you renamed it wallet.dat.dat which looked to you as wallet.dat, I don't know why they default to hiding such a key bit of information. If you were not able to get that to work there is also the final option to run your Pandacoin Bank / Wallet with a command line parameter -salvagewallet to extract your Private key from a problem wallet.dat

They like assuming that everyone is an idiot and don't know what file extensions are. I too turn mine back on and anyone else that i install their windows OS for them.

I had this too, and deleting peers.dat helped me solve this. You can do it directly from the UI now. Options -> Advanced -> Reset Peers.

If that doesn't work, your best bet is to delete the pandacoin folder ( EXCEPT wallet.dat. IMPORTANT!) and re-run the client to let it redownload the blockchain

Pandacoin launches pndproject.com: a dedicated crowdsourcing platform!What’s the best way to show how awesome Pandacoin is? To help speed up the development process and help community members to develop and execute their idea’s we’re launching PNDproject.com our dedicated crowdsourcing platform. Do you have a great idea for a Pandacoin related project but you lack the skills or the financial means? Make a proposition for a useful and interesting project and if it’s approved by the developers, it will be added to the platform. The best place to brainstorm about this is http://www.pandacointalk.com/ . We will be asking PhiPhi, the owner of the forum, to add a dedicated PNDproject subforum where you can pitch potential projects and decide as a community which ones will be valuable. The developers have a veto right which can be used for ridiculous projects like sponsoring a nascar car for example. More projects will obviously be added in the future, currently we just added the community chest since that's an ongoing project.
