i used bitcoin core long time ago and exported the public keys.


Are you talking about Electrum or Bitcoin core?

Weird the public key you posted above generated seems not from Bitcoin core but Electrum?

I think the post above is right your wallet might be in a different derivation path but if you can't find it there's another way to scan it and look for the right derivation path just make sure that you only paste the xpub(Master public key) of your wallet, not a master private key.

Here's the tool below and take note it only works on legacy wallets so if the wallet you generated before is segwit version then this won't work.

For segwit wallet, you can use this tool
