Hi!
can anyone help me fix this issue? I don't know why the 0 disappear :confused:

I need to do Hex (String) -> U64;4 -> Hex (String)

It needs to be 02f101658f665a6e3677995a5a19f37a3f9670b75970305e898459479961249f, not 2f101658f665a6e3677995a5a19f37a3f9670b75970305e898459479961249f

That's a 64 hex-digit number, if I'm reading it right. Your format string is "{016:x}", which only pads with zero up to 16 digits. Try 064:x instead.
