ok, the full path to bitcoin is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe".
I can get the command window up, but from there I don't know how to proceed.
1. open windows explorer, type in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\" in the address bar 2. hit enter 3. make sure nothing is selected in the window, shift+right-click a blank area in that window 4. there should be a option in the drop down menu called "open command window here", click it 5. in the command prompt, type in: bitcoin-qt.exe -rescan6. hit enter and rescan should commence

I was attempting to buy silver from agoracommodities with all the bitcoins in my wallet. I'm able to make smaller transactions, but since some of my bitcoins are locked up with dust transactions, I can't transfer all of my bitcoins. I'm not really sure how many I'm able to send really....I would guess all of them but maybe 1 bitcoin.

OK, now what? When I click on all the outputs under Send / Coin Control Features Inputs they total 0.095 bitcoin. Is that right? If so that is a crazy fee! I'm not even sure how to perform the transaction even if I wanted to....at this point I may as well because it has soaked up so much of my time it's ridiculous. I'm also trying to upload my wallet to blockchain.info if you think that would work? I believe somebody somewhere along the way has said that would consolidate my dust....

please note that fees are based on transaction size, not a fixed percent. If your inputs are less than 0.001 BTC, they're probably not economical to spend. I'm also trying to upload my wallet to blockchain.info if you think that would work? I believe somebody somewhere along the way has said that would consolidate my dust....
I'm not sure how that would help reduce fees, considering there are still tons of dust inputs.

Try selecting different inputs and look at how the priority, size and fee changes. Think back to what Danny Hamilton showed you. You'll get the hang of it.

OK...put a stake in this thread. The moral of the story is that small dust transactions suck and I had to pay 0.0181 bitcoin in order to fix the problem in short order.

I'm getting same error "transaction creation failed." I last opened core in 2012.
I am able to dump privkey of my address that has btc, but when I import it to bither, it shows some other address.
Am I missing something?

If it's from 2012, no doubt your Bitcoin Core address starts with a "1"... and I'm guessing the address in "bither" starts with either a "3" or "bc1"... - The "1"-type address is a "Legacy" address - The "3" and "bc1"-type addresses are "SegWit" addresses. If this is what is happening, you should use a wallet that supports importing private keys and creating legacy addresses... are you using a desktop or mobile device?

I am using mobile and bither generates address starting with 1 as well, but its different from my address. Can you suggest another site or tool which generates legacy address from private key. Also, for my information, how many addresses can be generated from 1 private key?

Every private key generates a legacy address (starting with 1), a nested segwit address (starting with 3) and a native segwit address (starting with bc1) If the generated address starts with 1, but it's not your address, you are importing a wrong private key. You can use electrum. Download electrum only from its official website and don't forget to verify your download. And as suggested by ETFbitcoin, please create a new topic if you have any other question.

You're right, I tried downloading Bither and importing a private key and it asked whether I wanted to use "compressed" or "compressed"... So, you didn't see your address as either option on the "select compressed or uncompressed key" screen? Does the private key you have start with a "5", "L" or "K"?
