Title: <Feature Request>
Post by: RealBitcoin on March 23, 2016, 04:15:25 AM
Hello i`d like to request feature in electrum:

When there is no wallet in the default wallet location directory, and I open Electrum it always prompts me to create new wallet. But i hold my wallets in a different location, so I cannot open my wallets until I create a new default_wallet in the default location.

So it's really annoying to always create a new default wallet, just to open a wallet in a different location.

So I request that the INSTALL WIZARD should include a new button, to open an existing wallet from file:

I've run into this problem myself. I vote for this to be a new option too!

There is an easy workaround, but i do agree that it would be a nice feature to make electrum even nicer :)

I don't have one either, but if nobody else is coming foreward, i'll make one in a couple of hours and make the request (altough i'd appreciate if somebody with a github account could do this, so i don't have to find out how the system works).

Cool thanks, if it allows a picture to be added, you can add this picture, the one in the OP to illustrate it better:

If you want this implemented in electrum head over to github and show your support, so that the devs can see that the community wants this feature :)
