I am having troubles compiling Electrum fork for windows, the wine build script finish building and generate binaries that does nothing when clicked on !!! While building I see allot of "fixme:msvcrt" which I don't know how to interpret, I tried changing the msvcm/msvcp90.dll to native then builtin without any luck.




I also tried the electrum-winbuild which also fails, I tried building natively on windows but pyinstaller 2.1 can't find the dlls (whic btw exists), pyinstaller 3.0 solve that but it can't find the PyQt hooks !!







BTW: it works great on Linux.

Self compiling does not require trust if you can read the code.

Im not really here, its just your imagination.

I used the Electrum-release repo . This one is for dash but you can change it to work with Bitcoin (or any other altcoin), I tried almost all the methods out there and this is the only one that worked for me.
