First, thank you all for the info, very helpful for a novice like me.
I'm on the latest version of Electrum: 4.4.6, on Windows.
The transactions are now showing as Local in both wallets.
The balance in the receiving wallet shows as if they completed, but the balance is Frozen.
Based on what you all said, these transactions will never be completed because of the low fee. I purposely set it to the lowest possible because the actual amount is under $1, so there is no point in paying ~$20 to speed them up. These are my initial test transactions before I sweep the wallet and send entire balance to the receiving wallet.
What does it mean if I use Remove?
- will it cancel the transaction and reset the balances in both wallets to the pre-transaction value? If Remove is not the same as cancel, how do I cancel?
- what does it mean re-broadcast it after I remove it? Does it mean I enter it in the send tab as a new transaction?
 
thanks!
