Issue with restoring my Firo wallet

Hello,

I am experiencing an issue with my Firo wallet. I hadn’t used it for about three months, and when I tried to launch it again, I was asked whether I wanted to create a new wallet or restore an existing one. I don’t understand why, as I already had a configured wallet.

I attempted to restore my wallet using my 24-word mnemonic phrase, but it also asked me for a wallet creation date. Since I don’t know the exact date, I proceeded without specifying one, but after the synchronization was complete, my original wallet didn’t appear. My funds and transactions are missing.

Here’s the information I have that may help resolve the issue:

  • My 24-word mnemonic phrase.
  • A 25-word seed.
  • A backup of the wallet.dat file from my original wallet.

What should I do to recover my wallet and my funds? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best regards,

What version is your wallet now?

The current version is v14.14.0 which is a mandatory update.
Please update to the latest and replace the current wallet.dat with the backup (copy and paste into the Firo data directory folder)

Let the wallet sync from start.

Hello AJaydono,

Thank you so much for your advice! It worked perfectly. I managed to locate the wallet.dat file in the Firo data directory as you suggested, and everything is syncing smoothly now after the update. Your guidance saved me a lot of time and hassle—I really appreciate your help!

Cheers
