update to the latest version of electrum if you haven't done so already. then do this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Electrum/comments/7g9qfr/bitcoin_sent_to_an_old_address/dqik4gt/?context=3

Do you see your address?

I have installed the newest 3.0.2 with Windows, the net connection was ok, synch ok, still nothing.  Even with the hucked transaction must be in history within seeds, why not?
What for right now? Huh

If you have correct seed which is generated that address you send BTC from exchange then problem is somewhere in Electrum.I suggest you try uninstall Electrum and delete his folder which is located in this path : C:\Users\Home\AppData\Roaming\Electrum and then install again using option "I have seed".

Before you do that you may try to go to same path and delete only "blockchain_headers" file,then give your wallet some time to sync.If you not see your transaction click on green dot and try to select server manually on by one.

Be sure you have your correct seed writen and checked before you do anything.

For sure. What I did: firstly, it was my first experience with Electrum wallet and with buying BTC. So, I only bought them, nothing must be in the change. That's true, there no my address. Only other, unused.  Secondly, I used to install all available versions, actually, they are still unavailable with Ubuntu 17, see,  99% go and with last one wallet has broken with installation, reason sounds like peer blocked or some. So, I have installed the Electrum 3.0.2 with Windows, it was connected, synch but... No result.
I don't have any idea what else. I sure, everything must be with seeds, even with the hucked transaction it must be in history or some. Actually, I have a screen with a pending request.
What right now? Huh

Please, I need make a topic with addresses more clear. I found a lot questions with an old address which never again appeared in Electrum wallet.
People gave receiving address to buy BTC then never saw this addresses in own wallet.
In my case it was like  I used to buy BTC from the exchange  "Ukr Cash", I can see transaction via blockchain.info, however, address not found in the console Electrum with 'get private keys' command. Maybe my wallet was fake or hucked, but it doesn't look like. Everything must be inside my seeds which one had never been put anywhere else.
Looks, like it's a common way for losing BTC for a lot of people.


 Is it possible to do something? For example, replacement with a fork or something else.
or just seeds must have to include all history. Roll Eyes

All the addresses generated by Electrum are located there,but they are probably hidden from you.If you have legitimate Electrum and if you are not hacked then click on View menu - show addresses.You will see addresses generated by Electrum,but there is also change addresses which you can discover by clicking on that small triangle.Your BTC should be in one of these addresses.
