I think at this point I would prefer to just force close all channels. Can you please instruct me how to do this safely? Thank you. ---

If you are 100% sure, yes, this could be the last resort. Use this guide, option 3 > [@How to restore your node wallet (updated)](http://community.umbrel.com/t/how-to-restore-your-node-wallet/3602/): > > NOTICE: this guide was made for Umbrel v 0.4.x. It is not valid anymore for v 0.5.x. [Please follow these instructiions for v 0.5.0x](https://twitter.com/umbrel/status/1562099972547690501) Here is a separate chapter about managing your Umbrel node, about methods/ways to restore/recover your Umbrel LND wallet in case of SHTF. There are many users that do crazy stuff with their Umbrel nodes and sometimes, there’s no other way to fix it than restore it into another wallet app and start over with a new one or same LND wallet but in a new instance. REME… Read carefully the steps. And don’t restore your new umbrel node with the same seed. Just create a new fresh instance. Later you can send the recovered funds to your new node, or just use them in blixt as a companion node. Blixt is a mobile node. ---

> [@AZBTC17](#): > > `rm ~/umbrel/lnd/lnd.conf && ~/umbrel/scripts/configure && sudo reboot` Ok good to know. Maybe I will try a few more things first as a full restore seems risky. I am seeing this repeated error in the LND log. Does this shed any light? '[ERR] LTND: unable to create partial chain control: status code: 401, response:" Thanks for your continued assistance.
