First off, I searched the forum before I tried this, if not allowed I'll remove this post.

I recently tried to use some BTC, but I couldn't send from my Electrum wallet.
Being mid transfer to seal the deal on some miners, that were very limited: I panicked!

My wallet would not sync with the network.

First thing I did was search here, and used the web help from Electrum. I saw a few people
who have had similar problems, but not Mid Transfer. What I decided to do next was a huge risk!

I downloaded the newest Electrum wallet available. BUT, I saved it
I found the file and installed it with the wizard. I did not remove ANYTHING FIRST.

Much to my surprise, it worked! It synced with the network! Best of all, it retained my seed and password,
 so all of my info was intact!

I made the transfer, and all is good!

Important: Always hard copy your wallet SEED!

Hope this helps others!
