Title: Verifing Signature File for Electrum Download - Where do I find it? Post by: mjammer on January 29, 2020, 03:11:47 PM Hi,
So I download the latest version of Electrum and want to verify the download. On the instructions is says I need to download Electrum and the signature for the file, where do I find the signature file? Thanks. Ok found it, ugg, right next to the download. The instructions say to save them in the same file, how do I do that? Also, which should I use the "Installer" or "StandAlone Exe" version. I'm using Windows. Sorry to be such a noob, just try'in to get it right. Title: Re: Verifing Signature File for Electrum Download - Where do I find it?

It keeps trying to save it as a text file. Should I be using Explorer instead? Thanks. Title: Re: Verifing Signature File for Electrum Download - Where do I find it?

Renaming the extension should work. If you are using windows then to see extension follow this instructions: https://www.howtohaven.com/system/show-file-extensions-in-windows-explorer.shtmlIf you keep failing then I will recommend to download notepad++ (https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/) and with this you can easily save .asc extension. I hope it helps. Title: Re: Verifing Signature File for Electrum Download - Where do I find it? Post by: mjammer on January 29, 2020, 04:20:27 PM Does it matter that I'm using Firefox.

Thanks again for your help. :) Title: Re: Verifing Signature File for Electrum Download - Where do I find it? Post by: AB de Royse777 on January 29, 2020, 04:58:48 PM You are welcome bud.
