I didn't lost my seed so no problem...

Just wanted to know if it is possible to do that

Yep:

1) Remove password from your wallet
2) Open the wallet file with a text editor and search for "xprv"

Protip: put a password back in and take care of the master private key as you would the seed.

If your seed is not working I think it is best to generate a new wallet and send your coins there while you still have access to the current wallet.

Just create a new wallet and make sure to write down the seed correctly this time. After that you can send the coins over and stop using the old wallet.

I read somewhere that electrum stopped supporting exporting the private key generated from the seed a few years ago.

Hi

How can I get the master private key from my seed so I can import my wallet to another one with that Master Private Key because its not accepting the seeds.

I did something already from Mycelium to Electrum. I created a wallet with seeds at Mycelium and there was an option to export the Master Private Key, so I can use now my HD wallet from Mycelium in Electrum too.

Is there any way to export my Master Private Key, from an Electrum wallet with a seed? I didn't found this option!

Thanks
