That's an entirely unrelated question. Clearly your wallet from 2014 isn't using taproot or segwit. Please ask on-topic questions, and there are plenty of questions here about recovering old wallets.

There's likely no need for you to turn any Bech32 address into Bech32m.

Receivers that wish to be paid using a native witness v0 output should construct bech32 addresses. Senders then use these addresses to pay them that way.

> my old address bech32 must be changed level up to bech32m (taproot) ?

You should **never ever** try to convert an address from one type into an other. It is up to the receiver wallet to construct addresses, and decide which addresses they accept.

If you want to start using taproot, use a taproot-compatible wallet, and it will necessarily create bech32m addresses to give out.

Note that not all software and providers support sending to bech32m yet: <https://whentaproot.org/>

In your wallet.
