Hi,

I can successfully transfer ZEC from my transparent address to shielded address. But, I cannot do the reverse, shielded address to transparent address. Usually people use transparent address, so I wanted to move ZEC coin from my transparent address to shielded address.

Is the issue occurring on a specific network? ZEC mainnet

What operating system are you using?Desktop

Brave Version (check About Brave):1.78.102

Hello! Sorry for the trouble. Unfortunately, you can’t de-shield or send back to a T address from a Shielded address in BW at this time.
