Has this been implemented yet? I'm locked out of the damn wallet and can't get in. Is there a workaround?

thanks, Jim

Hi Jim, we are still working on this. What you can do is to manually remove settings file.

Then you open again the wallet, set a new password and restore your previous wallet. Take in mind that you need your mnemonic.

Which OS are you using?

Hi Ignacio,

Thanks for the quick response, I’m using Win7 Ultimate. Yes I do have my initial pass phrase that I saved. Where/which settings file do I need to remove? Thanks.

[ianaya89]

No problem. So, the file should be located at ~/AppData/Roaming/metronome-desktop-wallet/Settings`

Let me know if this works.

[jsager1]

Yep,,, I found it,,, saved to settings-old then deleted the original . Worked like a champ,,,, I’m back in my wallet.

Thanks Ignacio.

Ignacio, I have the same issue with macOS. Where would I remove the setting from?

[ianaya89]

Hey, the Settings file in macOS is located at: ~/Library/Application Support/metronome-desktop-wallet/Settings

[HelionGroup]

TY. I'm not sure why I don't see that folder after re-installing.

[ianaya89]

Did it work? Which is the folder that you are not seeing?

[HelionGroup]

metronome-desktop-wallet/Settings - this folder does not appear.

It worked the first time and I made an ETH transfer, but I am locked out and there is no metronome file visible except the app.

Can you confirm that you are in the correct path? This is the complete path: ~/Library/Application\ Support/metronome-desktop-wallet/Settings

Take in mind that Settings is not a folder, is the file that you need to remove.

@HelionGroup the Library folder you have to look for is within your home folder (~), not in root (/).

All settings files are documented in the README too: https://github.com/autonomoussoftware/metronome-wallet-desktop#development-notes

If I type into Terminal rm ~/Library/Application\ Support/metronome-desktop-wallet/Settings

I receive "no file found"

I also receive err msgs:

[HelionGroup]

is there a way to find those settings without using Terminal? through Finder?

[HelionGroup]

NM, found it.
