if you kept deleting the wallet.dat file everytime - then you need to accept that whatever the coins you had in the original wallet you were mining to is now gone ...
NEVER delete wallet.dat files unless you have NOTHING in them - or you have a backup - or both ...
sorry to hear that though ...

now that is weird ...
any idea taek? ...

That's not weird. The wallets are using the same addresses, they are reporting the same coins twice. If you send it from one wallet, it should disappear from the other as well. The other thing that might be happening is that the coins are just 0-conf in one wallet but not the other, and once the transaction makes it into a block the wallets will sort out correctly.
My impulse reactions for updating caused this but I also noticed that the wallet has an auto-update feature built in... So technically if I just opened my Sia wallet it would of updated the wallet for me and I wouldn't of had to try and manually update the wallet, also might I say the wallet.dat is traditionally stored in your roaming folder but in Sia's case it is located wherever you install and run the program folder from.
This is not the norm so I overlooked it.
We're sorry about this, you're not the only one who has had problems with this setup. We are going to be changing it in the next major release so that the primarly wallet.dat is in your home folder, and the backup is in the executable directory.
If the backup is automatic, it should be near the primary wallet i.e. same directory (if run manually, the folder can be changed by the user).
That's because one would expect it to be there, and he might not put enough attention to it, and leave unattended.
And because the executable directory is not, in general, writable by the user!
Ah jeez this is confusing. We want the primary wallet to go in a stable folder (like home/.config/Sia) because we don't want people to lose their wallets if they delete the application. We were going to have the backup be mobile, but Mac does things a lot differently so now I'm not sure.
