Importing Bitcoin Uncompressed WIF PrvKey Derives Compressed Legacy Address

[nc50lc]

The issue is straightforward:

A WIF prvKey with uncompressed flag (starts with '5')
should have an uncompressed pubKey pair which where the address should be derived from.
Instead, current release forces it to use the compressed pubKey.

To reproduce:

• Acquire an uncompressed WIF prvKey elsewhere and take note of the derived address.
• Import the WIF to unisat and it'll derive the address associated to the compressed public key.

抱歉，我们的开发人员很忙。如果有任何消息，我会更新。

There seem to be quite a few situations like this, so if you restore the wallet plug-in configuration file through data recovery after resetting Windows, can you enter the wallet interface through the originally installed wallet plug-in, enter the password set at that time, and then enter the wallet interface? Export helper words? Is this a feasible solution?
Because the helper words recorded when creating the wallet can be imported into the new environment but there is no original BTC address and balance. Now that I have restored the configuration file of the previous wallet plug-in and imported it into the new environment, can it be retrieved?

I've done this but still can't open the plugin wallet, I need technical support,
