Hello FLT community. I have a pretty crappy problem.
About 3 hours ago I updated my wallet to the new version, on a new computer. And after it synched I sent my balance from my old wallet to the new wallet. After this send, I encrypted my wallet and the wallet closed as per usual.
When I opened it up just then, I had no FLT (fully synched) and different addresses. I had some funny wallet.dat rewrite file in my directory but my wallet with my balances are gone!
My old wallet obviously still reads that I've sent my balance so I have a few k coins just gone
Anyone out there with a similar problem in the past?
So you send your coins to a wallet with no backup or exported keys - very bad idea - please ALL never do this. Many things can and will go wrong, esp with Windows, maybe the exe was still holding onto the file, maybe it was corrupted, etc. Are you sure you didn't run the old version after you ran the new version (that can screw up the wallet too). The hard drive can fail, disk can become corupted etc etc. Not scolding you of course just please always have backups. About 3 hours ago I updated my wallet to the new version, on a new computer.

Whats the address you sent the coins to? Let me lookup the transaction
Look to see if there is another copy of wallet.dat
Another thing you can see is run: dumpprivkey [address you sent to] on the machine/wallet you sent to - if it spits out the private key, then try re-downloading the blockchain or adding rescan=1 to your conf
