thank you toast but i already did that
made a backup
erased all files
and installed the wallet version 4.27.1
didnt work
it didnt even load
stuck at the blue window
then erased all again
installed the 4.26
same thing
then installed 4.24
and still no change
any idea what i can do ?
my friend had the idea to import the backup to my working wallet and then transfer the bitshares to an bter acount
that way the the coins could be at least sold if needed

First of all, only use the most recent version: 0.4.27.2
If you deleted everything from the data directory like in those posts, try also deleting the "LOCK" file inside the wallet directory.
Do you have a normal backup that you made from inside the client? You could try deleting the entire data directory (after moving the wallet) and then importing from scratch.

thanks toast
i checked just an hour ago for new updates
is that 4.27.2 on bitshares.org download ?
i deleted all files even the old bitshare-x files and now the 4.27.1 is running
imported the wallet dat. backup file
and it syncing
no acounts showing yet but i guess that will come when its synced
pls tell where to find the 4.27.2 version
thanks for the fast help

It's here: https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares/releases
But 0.4.27.1 is fine too, there are no major changes.
