On windows, should be C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\databases
The preferences file is in ..Appdata\Roaming\me.hanh\ywallet
The AppData folder is hidden sometimes, may need to select the show hidden folder option in the file explorer

Thank you, thatâs helpful. I have to say it seems odd to me that it isnât all kept in the ywallet folder. It means a user deleting ywallet would likely be inadvertently leaving a large trace on their device, including their entire wallet data! Not great from a security and privacy perspective in my view. I see there are also wallet database files left in the Temp folder too.
On another note, I just found out about Zkool from browsing on here. I havenât seen it referenced anywhere else when looking for wallets to use. I think it would be a good idea if a reference was made to it on the Ywallet site at least, if itâs meant to be a replacement.

@Shawn might be able to get you bumped. Otherwise, itâs just a vetting period where you have to spend some time on the forum and reply to a couple topics.

Hi all. Is there a way to open a new thread as new user, or do you first need to earn some reputation?
I have some question regarding regaining access to and old Zcash (pre-2018) Ledger wallet.
I think it would be best to ask in a new thread, but since I cannot create such a threadt, this is a short recap of my problem:
-Ledger nano S with many mining outputs, pre 2018
-Running zebra (node)
-Running lithwalletd
-Cannot find a wallet to connect to it that can recognize and spend pre-2018 outputs. Tried y-wallet, but it cannot do a rescan starting before 2018 and I could not even find the settings to connect to my full node.

The easiest way to liberate the funds would be to import the seed into zkool set up for ledger as described in this post.
If you cannot do that, it should also be possible to compile the ledger app but Iâve not done it myself.

hi @Autotunafish need some help. Iâm unable to move some ZEC from the Transparent pool (10 UTXOs, Transaction Version 1) on Zkoolâs latest version
Even with âRecipient Pays Feeâ ON and clicking âMaxâ, the wallet returns an âInsufficient Fundsâ error. I have also tried partial sends (1.0 ZEC), but they fail with the same error.
I am 100% synced. Is this a known ZIP-317 fee calculation or rounding bug specifically for V1 legacy coins? Any workaround to force these to the Orchard pool? Steps already attempted without success:
-
Shield All: Failed with âInsufficient Funds.â
-
Manual Send to Unified Address (Orchard): Failed.
-
Recipient Pays Fee Toggle: Attempted with this setting ON; the error persisted even when clicking âMax.â
-
Partial Amount Send: Attempted to send only 1.0 ZEC, the wallet still returned the same error.
-
Address Types: Tested with both âOrchard-onlyâ Unified Addresses and combined UAs.
Thank you!
The zip317 rules dictate that the minimum fee for a tx is 0.0001 and 0.00005 for every additional note (utxo). Basically, any notes with values lower than that cannot be spent. You could consider it a bug because of the negative effect, though it was intentional.
The NU7 zip has an addendum to adjust the minimum fee threshold, but it is not yet specified/confirmed. The currently fee level was set when the price of zec was considerably lowerer so it is feasible.
Zkool allows you to view and select notes (tap the account and then ânotesâ in top right) to exclude from spending which may possibly allow you to move some funds, if the values are sufficent.
Hello, I am a new user. I bought some Zcash and the transaction has 2 confirmations after 6 hours and isnât showing up in my wallet or zcashinfo, though it does show up on blockchair. Is it normal for there only to be 2 confirmations after so long, and is there a chance that I donât have control of these funds? Thank you.
The wallet is likely not fully syncd and the new transactions have not been seen by your wallet yet. What wallet are you using?
Iâm using ywallet, which has taken some time to sync with past transactions, but this one seems not to show up however many times I reopen or refresh the wallet. The wallet is showing block 3363826 at the top and my transaction was in block 3363463, so I canât work out why itâs not shown up.
You can attempt the rescan option, just select a blockheight before the one with your transaction.
It is possible that this is related to another issue currently being addressed. There was a a new node release within the past few hours that disables Orchard so could have smtg to do with that. Sapling remains unaffected.
Thank you, I rescanned but unfortunately it is not displaying the balance with the latest transaction. That transaction is showing as confirmed blockchair but with only 2 confirmations. I used a transparent address, and the transaction was 8 hours ago. Could the new node that disabled Orchard have affected it?
In Ywallet, the transparent and shielded balances are separated. You need to swipe the qr code over to the side to get over to transparent.
Hi, new user here. I bought 1 ZEC yesterday and on blockchair it was showing as confirmed with 2 confirmations. Today, it suddenly says it is pending, and it is no longer showing in my (transparent) address. This is the transaction hash: a5b57b9a22986328482485a834ed00aa6ef21a32f25e902925509954e23866c2
My wallet address: t1aLMFcHF6cvEjcBuZhWVy9j6mAbJdEWpih
Has anyone encountered this problem before?
Thank you.
I donât think this is a wallet issue. This transaction yesterday was marked as confirmed on blockchair, today it says âpending confirmationsâ
a5b57b9a22986328482485a834ed00aa6ef21a32f25e902925509954e23866c2
Does anyone know what is happening?
Is it a shielded transaction? You may have to wait for the network update to complete: Coordinated Zcash Network Upgrade Underway
It was a transaction to a transparent address. Blockchair said it was successful yesterday, but now when you search the transaction hash, it says âWe couldnât find itâ
âAn exception occurred during transaction send: 16: bad-tx-consensus-branch-id-mismatchâ when trying to send ZEC in Ledger Wallet.
Is there a fix for this without entering my seed phrase on another wallet and which wallet would you recommend ?
