Open your "settings.json" file as text and remove the line containing that missing wallet path or name. It's in your Bitcoin data directory. Be sure to preserve the correct .json format or the settings will result with an error, be sure to end each line of wallet path/name with a comma except the last. If you're wondering how you ended up with that error: you must have loaded a wallet but deleted it later without unloading it first.

Yes, that doesn't contain any mainnet-related file. No Problem, although it's quite a "dirty solution" since you'll have to edit a file that shouldn't be tampered with. For reference (to those who aren't comfortable with editing a json file); The alternative workaround is to load a wallet with the same name on the same directory, then unload it.

Yeah I tried to load creating with old name which works too but i really don't wanted to use the same name. Using this dirty job  reminded me of the olden busy days editing n number of json files for every other coin to mine which announced here 😁
