Does your X1 xprv and X2 xprv actually look like this: xprv9vBq3lgskdah4l5h2yt894th93hhbcbsdcgbhsjcguyegfUYGJHGFJHGFg34ff1Z68Mt3vsB3k6SVFk M

That is to say... does it start with the 4 letters "xprv" or does it look something like this: RhooCVdENKkQnsw1SelJzYpJetYscSqnHnc7vKw0bvsKpzv5VquuNKSsX6gBm74wWgv493iawJMGBFF 12OkUfZsES6L2fxDMpdYlfJtpJohGLuGj1sM7mGPppejGFZ9pbRrx1KUJnnQPvCFcaDzVVU5FAmCBVm +ykAuOqLxf2ME=


If it looks like the 2nd example (and ends in =)... "Rhoo.... ME=", then I suspect you have set a wallet password... as per the instructions, when you create the disabled 2FA wallet, you must NOT set a wallet password, otherwise the keys are encrypted and you cannot copy/paste them from the wallet file.

Use: "Wallet -> Password", enter your current password and then leave the new/confirm password boxes BLANK. This will remove the password from your wallet file and when you open the wallet file, you should see that your xprv is now unencrypted and starts with "xprv"

Thanks, that was it Smiley and btw: Do i need to synchronise whole BTG blockchain via BTG core wallet or i can do next steps without it?
