I've fixed two issues in the wallet storage handling:

  • A UnicodeDecodeError that occurs when reading wallet files with invalid UTF-8 encoding
  • An OverflowError that happens when trying to display large error messages

The changes include:

  • Better exception handling for UTF-8 decode errors in storage.py
  • Added size limit checks to prevent overflow when displaying error messages
  • More user-friendly error messages
  • Graceful fallback for oversized error messages

Changed files:

  1. electrum/storage.py
  2. electrum/gui/qt/wizard/wallet.py
