Title: Wallet balance recalculation
Post by: cloud9 on June 04, 2011, 11:46:53 AM
How do I start bitcoin client to recalculate my wallet.dat balance - as the balance on the client are not what it is supposed to be, and does not correspond to my balance for my receiving address at blockexplorer.com ?  Only the last transfer to the receiving address has been included in the client's balance calculation and not a prior transfer to the same receiving address.  The blockexplorer.com shows the correct balance for the receiving address key.  I DO NOT want to redownload the whole blockchain.  What is the bitcoin.exe -? parameter for balance recalculation from the available blockchain data already downloaded?
