Are you sure they were all wallets and not just empty receiving adresses? If you use a wallet with changing receiving adresses, the old ones will remain 'active' but it will always show new adresses, wich all link to the same wallet. It's just so you can give out a new adress to each customer, to check theyre payments etc.

Well Basically , all those wallets had money , then I sent money from each one of them to this 1 wallet (that didn't dissapeare).
once I received all the money on this one wallet , I closed Multibit
after few days , I opened it back and all the adresses with 0$ dissapeared , only the one that had money didn't Shocked

and I'am pretty sure they were wallets Shocked what could they be other then that . I clicked "New Wallet" to make them.

If you are losing wallets somehow make sure to make backups.  (Read proper ways to store it, always be safe)

search for your .wallet file or it's location. if it is deleted try recovery programs to recover the file. or if you have your private keys or any sort of backup use that

They still there Shocked but the folders named "WalletName-data" are empty only for the wallet that contains money it have files on it.
I guess It has been deleted by cleaning programs as I said Shocked Clean master probably

I think that's only a sync problem.

I don't think so , It takes couple of seconds to sync with network for Multibit , It's not like Bitcoin Core it dosen't take that long and don't download the blockchain file

I am not sure what happened but you should always back up your wallet.dat in case anything happens you can have access to your bitcoin.
Now I am not sure what you could do.

Not sure either , but I guess my theory make sense , Clean Master deleted the files because there size is 0 & they have no money in them. and only the one with money stayed

so now I will just not create more wallets . and make Private keys backup for the current wallet with money just in case something bad happens  Shocked

I'am using cleaning program such Clean Master ? CCleaner ?
If u must use programs like this, you don't know enough about computer secuity.
My advice? Put your bitcoins anywhere with 2FA because without it, you will lost it sooner or later.

I don't think .wallet files can be 0 bytes in size. And you definitely don't need both CCleaner and "Clean Master." Uninstall "Clean Master."
