Thanks for your reply and sorry for my dicking around but both my Per. Life and Bis. Life are overly busy right now.
Pardon my poor terminology; there is no bug/crash report.
The second I click Next after entering my password, it freezes; Program is Not Responding.
Prompting the need to x out of it to shut it down since it does nothing but limbo.
See, I was looking at that very folder and thought of deleting the whole Electron Cash folder and starting from scratch.
I will backup the files you speak of, delete and try install again.
The thought did not once cross my mind that a password could cause problems; though I get it would make things simpler.
My passwords are usually rather long too.
If this fails, I should be able to start over on another computer though, right?
I could use the computer where my empty Electrum wallet is located now.
Though I would prefer avoiding this right now...
Thanks for the help man, I will come back later to update on progress.
when a crash happens you should provide a debug report or something and i have no idea how to do it for a python app under windows
what you can try in order to fix your issue is this:
go to
C:\Users\{user name here}\AppData\Roaming\Electron cash
make a backup of your "config" file then go to
...\wallets
and take a backup of your wallet too. now delete both files from here and restart Electron cash and restore your wallet from seed again, this time skip giving it a password. make sure you have connected to a "bitcoin cash server" this time.
