AH ok but how come that wallet with wrong seed can be created ? and if how come u can see receiving green adresses when history is empty ...
Any "valid" seed will allow you to generate a wallet and restore the addresses... empty or not. Electrum allows a user to create multiple wallets. It would appear you have written down a "valid" seed, but for a different wallet.

This amazed me and iam trying to find out different wallet on every oldmail , but it appear i used blockchain but that seed is not valid so iam stuck with electrum .

This is my old blockchain wallet - 3da37fbb-3d8b-4a40-8dc5-2ae5cb59f093
So i think i have same issue as - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1961522.0



Good job chief, you  have exposed your wallet to every hcker there is

If you have a mnemonic from 2014, they used a different wordlist in 2014 ( blockchain.info)

You will he unlucky to derive any info today as the rwcovery page is broken

You would need custom tools. Mnemonics from 2014 will derive your UUID and password
