My address has been changed

Someone sent bitcoins to my address

1FGhx3FEJptmr4b8N68ceWbqHdTt7c4Ycz

But when I look at my address now, it has been changed to

1HEt95bb7ngshaQhUqi7LZVrJRxDRHu7ws

Will the bitcoins still arrive at the first address?

what wallet do you use?Suncatcher 2019-11-21T17:39:20.327

It would help if you told us what wallet you're using for us to assess what may have happened.Murch 2017-02-22T18:29:57.477

My guess, without knowing what exactly you did or which wallet you are using, is that you clicked again on the "receive bitcoin" button. Every time you do that a new address is created. This is for security/privacy reasons (you should not reuse addresses).

Anyways normally all addresses (actually their corresponding keys) created this way are automatically saved in your wallet so you should be good.
