Title: Synchronizing... Green Light.... Synchronizing..
Post by: twister on December 14, 2014, 01:23:37 PM
How long should a freshly installed electrum with new addresses generated take to sync? It's not stopping, it goes to 'Synchronizing' then appears the Green Light and then it goes back to RE-Sync??

Also, where does it stores the data it downloads while Synchronizing??

[Experts only please]

Seconds, try a different server.

Also, where does it stores the data it downloads while Synchronizing??

I dont know for sure, but I suspect in memory.

Changing the server worked. :)

One more question. the "Auto Connect" button, should it remain clicked or not?
