I can't recover my original wallet. I set up my original wallet through the Monero GUI app where I sent my Monero. I copied all of the mnemonic seed (25 words with the 25th word being a repeat, the restore height name, etc.

I am working with someone of Reddit for the last week and have tried just about everything. The only thing I am managing to do is keep creating new wallets.

When I restore from seed it will not allow me to add the 25 words. If I put all 25 in and go through the process, it tells me "electrum-style word list failed." I then go back and take out the 25th repeated word and it will go through. But all it does is create a new wallet on my desktop with a $0 balance.

I have also tried going back on the restore height and also back date to the day before all with no luck. I still have the original transaction information from when it was completed through Binance. I just can't find the Monero anywhere.

I figured while getting help on Reddit, I would try here also. Thanks!


P.s. I do not ever remember the Monero balance showing in the wallet when I created it. I think the GUI closed and I opened it back up but there was zero balance. Binance accepted the Monero address and said it was completed.
