Is this in-development version of electrum from github? FYI github master is used for development.

Hello!
This is a tool that might (emphasis on might) give a more detailed error message on why your password isn't working. It simply displays your Electrum seed if the password is correct, and if not it prints one or more error messages.

If you choose to run it, post the results back here and I'll let you know what I think (it's a Python script which I wrote).

(Obviously, if it reports back any actual seed information, don't post it!)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\Downloads\decrypt_electrum_seed-master\decrypt_electrum_seed-master\decrypt_electrum_seed.py", line 217, in
    seed_str, mnemonic_str = decrypt_electrum_seed(wallet_file, get_password)

Hello!
Hey guys, my electrum wallet is no longer working with my password I set. Not really a big deal since I had the seed written down. But... restoring from the seed creates a new wallet with new addresses. Anyone have any suggestions? I've tried restoring previous versions of the wallet file itself, but the password will still not work. Would hate to lose my btc.
