Hi, I had a computer crash and MetaMask extension would not open so I tried to reinstall it using my 12 word seed phrase. I was met with the message “Invalid seed phrase”.
I had spelt the last word wrong. On correcting the spelling I have received a wallet with a different public key which is has nothing in it and no transaction history.
Hopefully someone can help.
Hi @SteveG if you have a problem with the last word, download this tool:
Download here:
PS: to be sure, use it on a computer without internet.
Hi, thanks for the reply.
I believe it is the last word as that is what was spelt wrong but I checked the list of words that can be used in the Github and there is no other word even close to it.
I will download the tool then unplug my internet to use it.
Try it it will generate all possible combinations in a few minutes.
So I can try any combo and just enter a ? for the word I want to find. Looks promising.
Thank you very much.
Yeah instructions are written on the github page.
I can’t find how to download the mnemonic-standalone.html.
Is the online version not safe to use?
Download this zip and unzip it to your desktop
https://github.com/3rdIteration/mnemonic-recovery/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
I’ve done that and its opened it up in my browser. Is that right.
Sorry for being a total noo.
Yeah mnemonic-standalone.html open in the browser.
Thank you. I will see how it does.
Good luck hopefully it will help.
Unfortunately it has not been able to find it. I have tried each word aswell.
I have found a video from cryptoo retreiver on toutube, I’ll give that a go.
Thanks for your help.
Hi @SteveG thank you so much for sharing with us.
Just to add to the awesome suggestions provided by @Luigi did you have more than one account in your wallet? if that is your case, you can try the steps in this article
