When a switch fails, the failure modal now distinguishes a CORRUPT target wallet
from other failures and offers a one-click repair:
- The switch worker watermarks the node's captured console output before the
start and, if the node dies in init, scans this start's output for a corruption
signature ("Failed to rename … .bak" / "salvage failed" / "wallet.dat corrupt" /
"Error loading wallet") → sets switch_wallet_corrupt_.
- The Failed modal then shows an accurate "this wallet appears corrupt" message
(instead of the generic "Couldn't open that wallet") plus a "Try to repair
(salvage)" button that retries the switch with the target node started under
-salvagewallet (recovers readable keypairs; implies -rescan).
- EmbeddedDaemon::setSalvageOnNextStart (one-shot, precedence salvage > zap >
rescan) + controller forwarder; switchToWallet gains a salvage arg.
Salvage operates only on the corrupt target (never the good wallet, no fund
movement). Adversarially verified: output isolation, one-shot lifecycle, state
handling, re-entrancy, no success-path regression.

Switching to a named wallet failed every time when the app had connected to a
pre-existing dragonxd at startup: the daemon is flagged externalDaemonDetected,
so stopEmbeddedDaemon()'s policy is DisconnectOnly ("not ours to stop") and the
switch skips the stop entirely. The old daemon keeps the RPC port, and the
relaunch fast-fails on EmbeddedDaemon::start()'s isPortInUse check — misread as a
bad wallet, reverting after a ~40s hang on the process-handle-only run-wait
(which reads false immediately for an adopted daemon).
A switch legitimately needs to restart the node, so:
- App::stopDaemonForWalletSwitch(): for an adopted daemon, send a graceful RPC
"stop" using the creds we actually connected with (saved_config_) — only our
own daemon obeys it, so a foreign dragonxd is a safe no-op — then wait (bounded
~40s) for the RPC port to actually free (isRpcPortInUse, the same gate start()
uses). Owned daemons take the normal stopEmbeddedDaemon() path. No PID/name kill
is ever issued at an adopted daemon.
- switchToWallet: gate start() on the port actually freeing; if it doesn't,
abort with a distinct switch_stop_failed_ reason instead of starting into a busy
port. Clear the external latch before relaunch so the fresh process is owned.
- EmbeddedDaemon::clearExternalDaemonDetected() (+ controller forwarder).
- Accurate revert message: "the running node didn't release its connection in
time" vs. the bad-wallet message.
Root-caused from live Windows logs; design + implementation adversarially
verified. Note: beginAdoptSeedWallet has the identical pattern and is left for a
separate fund-critical review.

When a note's stored record is corrupt or its tx isn't in the canonical chain,
z_sendmany fails to build a valid sapling spend proof even after a full -rescan,
because a plain rescan replays witnesses but keeps the existing tx/note records.
The zcashd repair for this is -zapwallettxes=2, which deletes all wallet tx/note
records and rebuilds them from the chain (keys/addresses preserved).
Adds a RepairWallet lifecycle operation that mirrors the existing -rescan plumbing
(one-shot zapOnNextStart flag on the embedded daemon; -zapwallettxes=2 implies and
supersedes -rescan), an App::repairWallet() that reuses the rescan status UI (so the
status bar + warmup-end completion detection apply), and a confirmed "Repair Wallet"
button + dialog in Settings → node maintenance (embedded daemon only).
