Title: Electrum not loading wallet
Post by: DirtyBytes on November 04, 2014, 12:37:50 PM
I had this working but imported it from on computer to another and now it's not working?


Can someone post the steps of transfering a wallet to another computer please.

You can use the command line to open a wallet file or the graphical interface.

Command line method:
electrum -w C:\\path\to\wallet.file

GUI method:
Run electrum on the new computer and if it asks you to create a wallet then go through the motions of doing so. Once you see the new wallet main window choose file menu > open to open your wallet.

Shortcut:
You can also create a shortcut on your desktop for your specific wallet using the command line I gave above.
