Title: How to set up a portable USB Darkcoin wallet
Post by: theblacksquid on June 26, 2014, 05:43:10 AM
Is there anybody out there who could elaborate on how to set up a DRK wallet on a USB thumbdrive (or any form of portable storage).

I've already downloaded the DRK wallet client on my thumb drive, but the address changes each and every time I run the client on a PC. does the same on different PC's.

Any help is appreciated.

Each time you launch wallet from usb it is probably adding data files to the pc app data folder.  Go to run and type % appdata% open folder tgen open roaming folder.  Look for darkcoin folder then copy thay file to usb drive.  Not sure if it will work. Never tried it.

You're going to have to specify a data directory to run from. When you switch computers, it is creating a new wallet and data directory on the machine.

To bypass this, you would create a Darkcoin config file specifying to use the data directory on the usb stick itself. Or edit the launcher with the following -datadirectory= usbdrive/.darkcoin

This is with any Bitcoin type coin though not just Darkcoin. For more help check out https://darkcointalk.org
