I managed to restore my Armory Wallet to a new computer with a larger hard drive. It's working again for now. I think I will wait until the price of BCH goes back up then send it to Coinbase to cash out. Or to a new BCH wallet yet to be installed.
Seems simple and straight forward if you keep it simple. Just temporarily put Armory in expert mode and then check the BCH box when signing to move the coins.
And then later Goat Pig will add Bitcoin Gold?

That only really works if you have not moved any BTC post fork or rewind your chain back. |

The other way, if you don't want to figure out (as I did not) about rewinding the chain is to get an ABC node running and run Armory on top of that. I did a write up late in this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2070058.0 detailing the process that worked for me |
This is not some pseudoeconomic post-modern Libertarian cult, it's an un-led, crowd-sourced mega startup organized around mutual self-interest where problems, whether of the theoretical or purely practical variety, are treated as temporary and, ultimately, solvable.
Censorship of e-gold was easy. Censorship of Bitcoin will be… entertaining.

And haven't touched any of the offline coins. I have to go through some complicated process for both wallets? The explanation is this: Any BTC you have moved post fork will put your BTC DB is a state that makes the coins inexistent on the BCH side. Any coins you did not move, you can use the BTC DB to create a tx for, that will be valid on the BCH chain. Therefor, to guarantee you have BTC DB state, you'd have to rewind your blockchain data to the fork point and sync a new Armory DB against that copy of the chain. Otherwise, bite the bullet and sync a BCH node, then build an ArmoryDB against that. |

Any coins you did not move, you can use the BTC DB to create a tx for, that will be valid on the BCH chain. So the coins (I didn't move) that are still in the Armory wallet. Can I still use the expert mode, check the BCH box and send the remaining BCH coins to Coinbase or another BCH wallet? Or just by sending a small amount of BTC I have made all the remaining coins unable to separate BTC from BCH? Without some long complicated process? |

I did a write up late in this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2070058.0 detailing the process that worked for me If worse comes to worse I will probably use this method. Just download the BCH ABC wallet (version that works). AFTER 28 hours of downloading the block chain. Then restore Bitcoin Armory wallet on the same PC. After removing all BTC (in case of train wreck). Let it sync and then you have the BCH?  |

I wonder if the BCH ABC wallet will also work with Bitcoin? BCH has turned out to be a valuable coin. Maybe more valuable than BTC  . |
