First you need to restore your wallet from wallet words and it will be nice if you upgrade your wallet.</p>

Yes restoring from wallet words doesn't work. The balance still shows a large unconfirmed portion.

<p>I haven't sent any transactions for months, but my Multibit HD wallet says my entire balance is unconfirmed. I've used Wallet > Repair Wallet several times. I've close it and opened it. There is only about 1% of the balance confirmed, and it changes each time I repair the wallet. </p>

<p>I see that very old transactions from 2015 are showing as unconfirmed (but they are).</p>

<p>I tried to install version 0.1.1 and that restored the balance, but the highest fee possible is 10,000 satoshis/KB and the current fees are 400,000 satoshis/KB so I cannot send any transactions with it.</p>

AFAIU, MultiBit was bought by another company and the original developers have moved on. I'm not sure whether it's still being properly maintained.
