What did I do wrong? I set up an Electrum Wallet Account and from I can tell from the reading. In the threads here and googling it is that I need to Restore my Wallet and change it to Legacy option or some other option so it uses a New BC1 being first 3 Letters and Number for the Receiving Address. I can't Send out any of my Bitcoin and I got like 200USD in it right now how do I get it out?

I tried Sending that last of my money but it simply just says to Me "Invalid Amount" which makes totally zero sense at all. I went to New/Restore Wallet and tried using my Seed Code to make a new Wallet despite Selecting the "Legacy" Option instead of the other two options which WERE SEGWIT and SEGWIT SOMETHING wooPS Caps Lock... I Sent out 200USD to a different place but it's the www.blockchain.com Web Account "Wallet" thing.

I was planning to Send the Money to that Account on ww.blockchain.com and then Sending it to the intended Wallet I couldn't Send to from my Electrum Wallet which never worked out the way I planned.

Am I doing the "New/Restore" the Electrum Wallet wrong or something? Or am I simply going to have to let my 200USD in Bitcoin sit in my Electrum 3.3.6 Version until a New Version comes out for other Wallets and www.blockchain.com Web Accounts Wallets or whatever manage to start using what I understand is a new form of Receiving Address that starts with a BC1?
