### Q: Imported wallet addresses don’t match my old ones. What should I do?

1. Double-check your mnemonic phrase is correct.
2. One mnemonic = one HD wallet. Inside, you can create multiple accounts (Account 1, 2, 3). By default, only Account 1 is restored. Try adding more accounts.
3. Each account has its own private key. Export accordingly.
4. Imported address type defaults to **Native SegWit**. Switch to the address type you need (e.g., Taproot).
5. If you previously set a **Custom HD Path or Passphrase**, you must input the same one during recovery. If forgotten, recovery won’t be possible.
6. Still not working? On Step 3, click **Scan in More Addresses** to attempt recovery.

### Q: What If I Forgot My Wallet Password?

UniSat does not store or transmit your wallet password. If you've forgotten it:\
You can restore the wallet using your seed phrase. During the restoration, you can set a new password.

If you don’t have the seed phrase, unfortunately, there is no way to reset or recover the password.
