I downloaded the Bitcoin Core GUI wallet on my Mac. I then fully synced the node and imported my wallet's backup, which worked fine.

Now Bitcoin Core says, "wallet is encrypted and currently locked". I have the password for the wallet, but I'm not sure how to unlock the wallet. Is there a place to unlock the wallet?

I couldn't find that message in the source code, which website did you download it from? – RedGrittyBrick Jul 20 '23 at 16:06

That v22 is out of date, the current version v25 is available at https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/. See https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/q/101495/13866. – RedGrittyBrick Jul 20 '23 at 17:46

@RedGrittyBrick I got it working once I had updated it to the latest version. Thank you. – Cromulent Jul 21 '23 at 14:46
