Hello All,
I'm rather new new to the UTC and in fact cryptos.Nevertheless,I'm trying to recover the gap
Here's a (maybe noob) question for you.Sorry if this was answered before:
I had to reformat my harddrive, had my UTC wallet backup previously which was encrypted for sure.
With the new installation,I've put back the wallet.dat file in place in Windows 7.
My question is,the wallet.dat file immediately worked without asking a passphrase.This means my wallet is accessible without any further security steps.
I can even confirm the situation in Ultracoin 1.6. Because after the new wallet file,the wallet address is updated,coins are there and it opens up the option of "change passphrase" in settings menu.
I wonder how this can happen without asking me the passphrase... Is this normal or a bug?
Awaiting your comments,
