me again. is there anything i could do beside repairwallet, rescan and reindex to try to repair a damaged wallet?

thx again.

*edit: in blackcoin-qt, everything is just fine. but if i try to import the wallet to lore, lore tells me wallet is damaged. if i just open lore and it is using the old wallet dat, im missing couple 1000 of coins. for nostalgical reason i would like to maintain my 2014 blackcoinaddress... if not possible it is no big deal but its confusing for me that the old wallet has no problem but lore has...



Use the QT wallet and issue the dumpwallet (filename) command, quit the wallet and navigate to %appdata%\blackcoin in Windows Explorer and move the wallet.dat out of there (don't delete it, think of it as a backup and put it elsewhere or just rename it). Then run Lore. It will create a new wallet.dat with new addresses but you can now use importwallet (same filename as above) in the console and allow a rescan to occur. That should definitely do it. The file from the dumpwallet command will be in the directory you launched Lore from if you wish to later delete it.

first of all, thank you about 57 times for your reply. but i did exactly how you told me and again: lore tells me that the wallet. dat is damaged but it is still working flawlessly wit the blk-qt wallet. it seems like i should just create a new address and send it there to use lore, or am i missing something... even older backups of my wallet.dat aren't importable on lore...

but thank you again for your kind support.
