Title: My BTSX wallet is not connecting and I'm not able to register...
Post by: kingtrader on November 11, 2014, 11:04:59 pm
My BTSX wallet is "not connecting". I haven't been able to register even though I was told I was sent funds to register. What should I do?

Thank you for the help

I am having the same problem with the new download v0.4.24 . It says 0 connections from getinfo  but in the bottom right corner it says 14 connections.  I have tried closing and restarting and then uninstalling and reinstalling. Same problem. Stuck at block 862027.

1) go to "%APPDATA%/BitShares"
2) remove all folders EXCEPT "wallets"!!!!!
3) restart the client

So the Bitshares folder is in the same directory as the other Bitshare folders I listed (appdata/roaming) but has nothing within the folder.

Ok I just open the new version and I had to set my password and agree to terms again.

But on the bottom I can see that the blocks are syncing now. What should I do next?

And where can I go to learn to secure my wallet best?

Thank you
