Electrum will only ask for password when access to the encrypted data: the master private key or seed are required.

When making a bitcoin transfer, Electrum still requires a password to sign. So I really need help.

That's what that line is all about.
Electrum will have to derive the required private key from the master private key to be able to sign a transaction.
Since the master private key is encrypted, you'll have to provide the password to gain access to it.

I've tried creating a similar wallet that doesn't encrypt files with the password I generate. I then put a password I know into the password list and tried running BTCRecover to see if it could find my password, but it couldn't find it. So I think BTCRecover only works with encrypted Electrum wallets with a password.

It works:
I tried it with a test wallet which is not encrypted but has a password: 12345
(BTCRecover referred to it as "WalletElectrumLooseKey")

Here's the command that I've used:

Code:

btcrecover --wallet test_wallet12345 --tokenlist test_wallet12345.txt

Here's the contents of "test_wallet12345.txt":

Code:

2
5
3
4
1

Here's the result:

Code:

Wallet Type: btcrpass.WalletElectrumLooseKey
Wallet difficulty: 2 SHA-256 iterations

Can you give me your contact information, or you can PM me via Telegram: https://t.me/MrIces910 I really need your help guiding me. I tried as you said but it still doesn't work and it seems that according to the results your Wallet_type and mine are different.

Code:

Wallet Type: btcrpass.WalletElectrum2
Wallet difficulty: 2 SHA-256 iterations

All possible passwords (as specified in your tokenlist or passwordlist) have been checked and none are correct for this wallet. You could consider trying again with a different password list or expanded tokenlist...
