The wallet shows my correct balances and all transactions but I'm not able to unlock it with my correct password when I try to send or receive bitcoins (I did secure it with my password). \r\n\r\nAt the beginning I thought the password/s I was using aren't correct, but then I made an observation, that only when I type in only one specific password then I receive this message in popup:\r\n>>>assertion failed<<<\r\n>>>program: C:\\Program Files\\Bitcoin\\bitcoin-qt.exe<<<\r\n>>>File: wallet/crypter.cpp, line 205<<<\r\n>>>expression false<<<\r\n\r\n>>>Runtime Error<<<\r\n>>>program: C:\\Program Files\\Bitcoin\\bitcoin-qt.exe<<<\r\n\r\nWhen I enter any other passwords only message I get your password is incorrect and never receive the message in popup described above. I can use incorrect passwords all day and that message doesn't appear at all, but as soon as I enter correct password the message is on.\r\n\r\n\r\n<!--- What behavior did you expect? -->\r\nafter I enter my password I expected to unlock my wallet, but that isn't a case and instead I get an error and I'm not able to send or receive bitcoins\r\n\r\n<!--- What was the actual behavior (provide screenshots if the issue is GUI-related)? -->\r\nThis error message appears only when I type in my correct password. If I type in any other password this message doesn't appear, but instead it tells me the provided password is incorrect. Message in a popup when a correct password is being used:\r\n>>>assertion failed<<<\r\n>>>program: C:\\Program Files\\Bitcoin\\bitcoin-qt.exe<<<\r\n>>>File: wallet/crypter.cpp, line 205<<<\r\n>>>expression false<<<\r\n\r\n>>>Runtime Error<<<\r\n>>>program: C:\\Program Files\\Bitcoin\\bitcoin-qt.exe<<<\r\n\r\n<!--- How reliably can you reproduce the issue, what are the steps to do so? -->\r\neach time I enter the correct password the window with the message with an error message appears. If I type in any other (not correct) password this doesn't happen at all. I can type 20 incorrect passwords and the error message above doesn't popup.\r\n\r\n<!-- What version of Bitcoin Core are you using, where did you get it (website, self-compiled, etc)? -->\r\nv0.17.0\r\nHave downloaded it from bitcoin.org website\r\n\r\n<!-- What type of machine are you observing the error on (OS/CPU and disk type)? -->\r\nwindows 8.1\r\n64 bit operating system\r\n500GB SSD hard disk\r\nintel celeron cpu N2840 2.16 GHz\r\n\r\n<!-- Any extra information that might be useful in the debugging process. -->\r\nI have reinstalled the wallet, deleted all files under /roaming folder (approx. 145GB), so totally clean \r\ninstallation. Only old file is my wallet.dat file.\r\n\r\n![btc error](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/44040275/46770496-f38aa580-ccef-11e8-88c2-0d9defc4efdd.png)\r\n\r\n[log file.txt](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/files/2466745/log.file.txt)\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/comments/428897803","html_url":"https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/14461#issuecomment-428897803","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/14461","id":428897803,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQyODg5NzgwMw==","user":{"login":"emilrus","id":23192947,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjIzMTkyOTQ3","avatar_url":"https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/23192947?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus","html_url":"https://github.com/emilrus","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/emilrus/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-10-11T10:04:43Z","updated_at":"2018-10-11T10:04:43Z","author_association":"NONE","body":"Your wallet.dat is probably corrupted, do you have another backup?"}}
