Thank you for the suggestions, but yeah, I tried all of those. Didn't work. OtisG

I've had Armory many years now, and I have relied on it for my cold storage Bitcoin which I've owned for many years. I love the interface and capabilities.
Windows keeps updating. Mac OS keeps updating. Windows 11 is the current version, and WIN11 keeps receiving monthly updates which will not allow me to prevent updateS, which have rendered Armory as useless (I can only delay Win11 updates). Armory stopped working on Win11 for me about a year ago (2023). Also, Armory doesn't work for Mac OS and hasn't for a number of years now. The most recent version of Armory that works (in my experience anyway) is running on Windows 10, which I'm running on a former gaming PC that is 8+ years old now. I hope the hardware doesn't die. Win10 still allows me to prevent Windows updates, and that's the only way I've kept Armory running on that PC.
Serious question here...I'm not trying to harsh anybody's buzz or cast aspersions. Will Armory actually be updated in the very near future, i.e. 6-12 months, to support the current versions of Windows and Mac OS? If not, just let me know. I know Armory development and support is free, and it's really awesome that Goatpig and others continue to support it free of charge. Thank you for your excellent work.
I'm seriously worried about my ongoing ability to store and retrieve my Bitcoin in Armory. If Armory is not planned to be updated, can someone just let me know what other wallet software (that is kept up to date with the latest Windows/Mac) is the best software to migrate my Armory Bitcoin to?
Many thanks, OtisG

I'm thinking Windows 11 downloaded updates/patches about the same time I installed Bitcoin Core v25. In a pinch, I can use a separate Windows 10 server for Armory, but that's an old PC I'd like to use it for other purposes. Windows 11 is my fastest PC, so if I can figure out this problem, it would be awesome.
If you think that it's the cause of the issue, then try to uninstall the latest updates of your W11 machine. Refer to this article to see how: support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/how-to-uninstall-a-windows-updateThen, since you've already downgraded and confirmed that you have the complete blockchain but the issue remains, then we can deduct Bitcoin Core out of the suspects. Today I reset Windows 11 by running the built in Windows utility to deinstall all programs completely including Windows 11. I chose the option to download the Windows 11 installation files from the Internet, and I also chose the option to keep my personal files and folders. After that, I reinstalled Bitcoin Core 25 and Armory. Summary: I get the same Armory result with "Scanning Transaction History" hanging at 43%. The nice thing is Windows 11 starts a whole lot faster now!, so it wasn't a lost cause.

It's a long shot, but to make sure that it's totally not caused by Bitcoin Core, check your 'debug.log' in "D:\Users\<Username>\BitCoin-Blockchain" for possible blockchain inconsistencies.
If nothing works, you might have to downgrade to v24.1 or your previous working build. There's no major changes in v25's release notes that could cause incompatibility with you current blockchain.
I verified the Bitcoin Core debug.log has no errors and no inconsistencies found. Also, as an FYI, a couple of weeks ago I deleted the blockchain and redownloaded the entire thing; it took ~6hrs. I downgraded to Bitcoin Core v24.1; Armory still sticks at 43%. I also tried deinstalling Armory and reinstalling it; same problem.

Here is the content from an updated ArmoryLog.txt log from this morning; the BTC blockchain is up to date. 2023-10-20 08:12:59 (WARNING) -- SDM.pyc:445 - Spawning bitcoind with command: C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\daemon\bitcoind.exe -datadir=D:\Users\REDACTED\BitCoin-Blockchain -snip- 2023-10-20 08:13:11 (ERROR) -- ArmoryQt.py:1198 - 31 attempts to load blockchain failed. Remove mempool.bin. Does setting Bitcoin's datadir to " D:\Users\<Username>\BitCoin-Blockchain" in the GUI intentional? Because for some reason, it wont load. Try to start Bitcoin Core ( bitcoind.exe) with --datadir="D:\Users\<YOUR_USERNAME>\BitCoin-Blockchain" command line argument to see that there's no issue in Bitcoin Core. If it wont start, tell us the error or the related entry in 'debug.log' file inside that data directory. Yes, that datadir is intentional, because I have configured the data to be on a separate drive. Running bitcoin-qt.exe has never been a problem, and running bitcoind.exe with the above command line arguments works 100% as expected. Armory won't kick off Bitcoin Core anymore, but it used to; I must have misconfigured something in Armory during all the debugging I attempted. I just start bitcoin-qt.exe before launching Armory.

FYI - I just now fixed the directory setting for Armory to spawn bitcoind when I launch Armory; it's synch'ing with the blockchain now. This is the point where "Scanning Transaction History" stops at 43%. Incidentally, the estimate for when the transcation history scan will finish never updates from 11 minutes.

How about the rebuild and rescan from the help menu have you tried that?
If it doesn't work then would you mind sharing your armory logs? You can export the logs by going to file --> export log file or go to the armory folder and look for armorylog.txt and share the content here make sure to put the logs inside the insert code tag.
Apologies for getting back to this thread so slowly. Rebuild/rescan did not change anything.

1. Did your chain data get pruned after you installed 25.0? 2. How many blocks is Core showing? 3. How much disk space do you have left?
1. No, it didn't get pruned. 2. All the blocks are downloading in Bitcoin Core. 3. 1TB total with 280GB free.

I did try the rebuild an rescan, but it still gives the same results. The computer in questions is Windows 11, and it also recently downloaded and installed some upgrades.
As a test I copied the wallet to an older Windows 10 PC I have with Bitcoin Core 25.0, and Armory works as it should from there. It looks like the issue is perhaps Windows 11 related. I'm pressed for time today, but I will plan on sending logs to you tomorrow from the Windows 11 PC.
There might be something that causes this issue if it is just your OS it might be a compatibility issue. Can you try to change the compatibility mode to Windows 10 or 7? To do that right-click the Armory shortcut --> properties --> compatibility then enable "Run this program in compatibility mode" and choose Windows 10 or below. Also, do this in Bitcoin core then reboot the PC. If it didn't work try disabling the firewall and exclude Armory and Bitcoin core from your Anti-Virus. Apologies for my slow reply: work's been crazy. I tried all of the above, and none of it worked. Changing to compatibility mode made things even more wonky.

Thank you for your quick reply.
I have not tried that; I will do so this morning and report back.

Hello, After installing Bitcoin Core 25.0 a couple of weeks ago, my Armory wallet will not complete opening. It hangs at about 43% complete during Scanning Transaction History. It's done this at various times in the past, and the fix was to simply rename the "databases" directory to let Armory rebuild it. I've done that, but it won't get past 43%. I've let it run overnight more than 12hrs, and it won't finish.
Any thoughts? OtisG

IMHO, Bitcoin is basically tracking with gold in terms of it's rise. Gold has hit record $s recently.

I'm curious if there's an ETA for a release date for 0.96.4? Armory is my primary BTC wallet, and I'd like to continue using it.

Looking forward to what Core delivers next in the short term and over the next year to make off chain scaling a reality. OtisG

Bitcoin is crashing for good. You should sell it. I'll buy it from you for $1000.

Is there, or will there be, such a thing as a Lightning full node that folks like me can run to strengthen the network? If so, I'd love to pitch in. I've been running a Bitcoin full node for 4+ years.

woohoo! Will download it now.
And it works with BTC Core 14.0! This is the first time in over two months my Armory wallet has completely worked. Thanks!!!

Hello,
I have Bitcoin in an offline Armory wallet for several years now. With the continued updates to Bitcoin Core and Armory wallet, I want to ensure backward compatibility.
Is there a table/matrix available of offline Armory wallet versions that are compatible with newer or latest Armory wallet versions? I want to ensure I can bring my Bitcoin back online to transact with them.
Thanks! OtisG
