I still have my Bitpay wallet installed on my old machine, version 3.9.1 Windows. When I installed the latest version 3.14.0 of Bitpay on a new machine, and import the wallet using the 12 words and same spend password, it gives me completely different wallet address. My impression was that it should give me access to the exact wallet address that I had entered, which I want to do because it is my mining wallet.

Thank you.
