Hello, I believe you just need to reinstall the wallet and enter the 12 words that hopefully you wrote down and that should restore it. Let us know if you have problems after that.

Did a search and found this thread:

Wallet you are trying to restore already exists *solved*

Hi I must say this is one of the worst wallets I’ve dealt with. I remember dealing with some shitcoins having pretty bad wallets, written in mandarin, with no guides or support, but at least I could use google translate and fix the problem: the software still worked. This is worse. Been working at this problem for months a little at a time, hoping each new wallet version would help solve this. None of the previous threads have helped. People always say to click on the wallet, delete it, wait …

The wallet is already online. Go to a different computer to restore or uninstall Daedalus from the comp you’re on and then delete the %appdata% folder and reinstall.

Trying to replicate someone’s wallet eh? Ha!
