Wallet loading failed.
Wallet loading failed.
Hi,
I am trying to restore my bitcoin core wallet from another device. When I try to restore my wallet with my .dat file I get this message on bitcoin core: “Wallet loading failed. Prune: last wallet synchronisation goes beyond pruned data. You need to -reindex (download the whole blockchain again in case of pruned node).” I dont really understand what this means, not tech savvy. How can I upload my old wallet on my new mac?
This error always comes up when you are trying to import a wallet with old pruned data meaning it can’t find any transactions from the current blockchain data.
This is my own solution that works to me but I do not know if it will work for you.
Try to disable the pruning mode first and close the Bitcoin core> Go to the blockchain data folder and delete all data and then open Bitcoin core again and enable prune mode again and let it sync.
Update here if it didn’t work.
