Bootstrap will not make your sync faster with current Bitcoin Core version
He already download Bootstrap.dat. So syncing locally will be faster than syncing while downloading.
Yeah dude you right its not working with Bitcoin Core version v0.10.1 (64-bit)..Is there anyother way?
You can add some nodes that have a fast connection by hand. Close bitcoin core. Hit Win + R and enter:
c:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -connect=185.45.192.129
This will limit your connection to a single node. Once your node is fully synced, close and start normally. Keep in mind that sync speed still depends on your CPU, HDD(SSD) speed and the speed of
your internet connection. If a node is not reachable or no longer accepting outside connection, start with another IP.
