Zcash4win BETA is out!

can you post the last 20 or so lines from %AppData%\Zcash\debug.log please?

After this went on, I pressed ā€œokā€ and now 81 % ! Can be problems again ? Can I lose money?

Sync is very slow! for more than 25 hoursā€¦

no you are fineā€¦it just needs to finish syncing to 100%ā€¦may take a WHILE depending on your bandwidth, system, etc

I hope everything will be fine! tnx!

It did synched up to May 1st. 2017 44% and it took 3 hrs to get there, but itā€™s been sitting at 44% level for past 2 days. It did get stuck on 44% on version 1.0.11 previously. Is this normal? does it take weeks to reach 100%?

Greetings, any resolution for the daemon timing out situation? I have updated on several machines and nothing is working. Canā€™t access my zcash wallet, no a good situation. Any other fixes besides moving to linux?

I stopped working on the 19th, installed the new 1.0.12 and all was good for 10 hours then nothing.

Please advse, thank you
Scott

Hi, I have the same problem

Yes, Iā€™m using zcash4win-1.0.12.

Everyone who is having the issue of their daemon taking longer than expected simply needs to search this thread. The resolution to this problem has been given multiple times. I realize panic sets in when things donā€™t go as planned, but stop. Take a breath. Read. You will find what youā€™re looking for!

Just curiousā€¦ if mine says ā€œ8 connectionsā€,. or goes higher to 12 or moreā€¦ what is it doing?.. Itā€™s not helping the miner at all right? Or is it just connections to sites where I can trade to?
Someone said itā€™s the connections to the daemonā€¦ which I believe is a security thing, or no.

thx

no thatā€™s not normal!

worst comes to worst you might have to re-sync the whole chain from scratch.

what OS version and machine specs do you have???

that is how many peer to peer connections you have

bitcoin and all its forks (and most other cryptos!) are all p2p networks.

it defaults to 8 max outbound connections, and if your firewall allows the right inbound ports, can be quite a bit higher

Interestingā€¦

So why would zcash4Win need any peer to peer? It just syncā€™s the wallet right?

Please go find and read the bitcoin white paper

Zcash4win is using a stock zcashd portes to Windows. It is a full node, it
(and bitcoin and all its other forks) connects to other nodes to sync the
blockchain over a p2p network

Daemon taking longer than expected, solved a couple ways on my laptop. I think it has to do with windows update. Windows defender wasnā€™t the issue for me. My windows 10 wonā€™t update so tries to every few days, I need to format and reinstall another newer version then came with the laptop. Earlier, I got it working with 1.0.12 and deleting blockchain, chain something data and reinstalling. Then another update and nothing worked, except this: I went to C:\Program Files\zcash4win\app , then I held SHIFT down and right clicked on empty space in file explorer, then I click on open command window prompt here. Now I simply typed ā€œzcashd.exe -reindexā€ In about 4 minutes zcash4win GUI popped up (unexpectedly) and started syncing from the beginning. I think its good advice to keep a copy of wallet.dat on a USB stick.

Already have and it doesnā€™t work triple ccie here, something is wrong
