I’m fairly new to MetaMask and yesterday I deposited money into my account. later I noticed that I had 2 wallets and had deposited it into the wrong account. when I wanted to send it to my good wallet I had to have a privat key. when I went to look for it in my extension the wallet I had put my money on was not there. than I disconnected that wallet from my dashboard out of fear and reaction and later I could not get in at all, I searched a lot on the internet but when I add wallets to my main wallet, the wallet does not come back this is the address of that wallet : 0xCA2d4976df52b1e9cDF26d1804C336FEeCb7fAfb my question is can you guys help me get this wallet back? ---

If it was created with another seed phrase, you need to restore it using that seed phrase or private key. > **[How to import an account](https://support.metamask.io/hc/en-us/articles/360015489331-How-to-import-an-account)** > > This article covers the process of adding accounts to your wallet which are not associated with your MetaMask wallet's Secret Recovery Phrase.
