## Parity [v1.8.1](https://github.com/paritytech/parity/releases/tag/v1.8.1) (2017-10-20)
|
||||
|
||||
Parity 1.8.1 fixes several bugs with token balances, tweaks snapshot-sync, improves the performance of nodes with huge amounts of accounts and changes the Trezor account derivation path.
|
||||
|
||||
**Important Note**: The **Trezor** account derivation path was changed in this release ([#6815](https://github.com/paritytech/parity/pull/6815)) to always use the first account (`m/44'/60'/0'/0/0` instead of `m/44'/60'/0'/0`). This way we enable compatibility with other Ethereum wallets supporting Trezor hardware-wallets. However, **action is required** before upgrading, if you have funds on your Parity Trezor wallet. If you already upgraded to 1.8.1, please downgrade to 1.8.0 first to recover the funds with the following steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make sure you have 1.8.0-beta and your Trezor plugged in.
|
||||
2. Create a new standard Parity account. Make sure you have backups of the recovery phrase and don't forget the password.
|
||||
3. Move your funds from the Trezor hardware-wallet account to the freshly generated Parity account.
|
||||
4. Upgrade to 1.8.1-beta and plug in your Trezor.
|
||||
5. Move your funds from your Parity account to the new Trezor account.
|
||||
6. Keep using Parity as normal.
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't want to downgrade or move your funds off your Trezor-device, you can also use the official Trezor application or other wallets allowing to select the derivation path to access the funds.
