It's not a big deal so I would go ahead and confirm it. The change address is still derived from your seed so you control it. It's just different from what ledger expected.

edit: actually it's because you disabled change addresses in electrum preferences. if you enable them the warning goes away:

Thanks for the reply.

I have used this Ledger since when they were released and have not altered any settings with regards change of address?

Why would it only now appear?

Seems very odd to me.

Hi All


Posting here as i have had a reply back from Ledger Support Email to contact Electrum.


I am using Electrum 3.3.8 to send BTC and it has been fine for several months.
I just tried to send some BTC from there and insted of the usual CONFIRM on Ledger Nano S i get a message 'Warning!'
Then -
Press both buttons -The Change of path is unusual
Press both buttons -Change Path 49'/0'/0'/0/6
Press both buttons -Reject if you are unsure Y or N

This has NEVER happened before, what is happening, is it safe to accept, i have not altered/updated anything on Ledger/Electrum.

I have been sending/receiving transactions for several months without this ever happening?

Here is the reply i had from Ledger Support -

'Hello,

You should contact Electrum support for the path direction i don't think it's normal.

Have a nice day

Cheers
