Hello, @hadi_poem, welcome to the forum.

It is possible that this was due to not all 12 words being spelled or spelled incorrectly. Please check these points.

Greetings.

That happens because the words you enter are not those of your wallet, so another wallet is created.

To prevent this from happening, you must copy along with the 15 words, the check sum of the wallet (4Letters-4Digits). With these two pieces of information you make sure that when you restore the wallet, you are restoring the correct one.

I just created a wallet, deleted it and then restored it and all fine. Let me insist that you should check the secret phrase you are trying to restore.

The slightest error or change in the words entered will end up creating a new wallet.

In order to reset the spending password u will need to restore the wallet using the correct seed words

Perhaps this seed words is for byron wallet

Try to restore the byron wallet and check if u are seeing any transactions; if yes it means the seed words is not for shelley
