Having upgraded my hdd to ssd, I've reinstalled my Electrum watch-only version (Installer old version 3.0.2 that I used to have) and restored it using my MPK.
Are you using the version 3.0.2?

Versions older than 3.3 don't synchronize anymore. Please download the latest version on ELECTRUM.ORG (the ONLY legit website to download Electrum). Anything else is a scam.

I also recommend that you verify your Electrum file signature before doing anything: https://bitcoinelectrum.com/how-to-verify-your-electrum-download/

Yes, I started the same .exe file I downloaded years ago.
It's ok, many thanks for the information and advices.

Hi
I have an Electrum cold storage installation.
Having upgraded my hdd to ssd, I've reinstalled my Electrum watch-only version (Installer old version 3.0.2 that I used to have) and restored it using my MPK.  Neverthess it seems not synchronizing and therefore don't see any transaction history.
I cannot figure out whether the Network settings are fine and wondering if I'm missing anything?
There's no red or green dot at the bottom right h. side.  Undecided
Thanks for helping out with this.
