Normally I use Linux distros, but for the life of me I've tried everything!
 YES, for months I've searched in here unsuccessfully, different coins/ and tried ALL of youtube's methods configuring even a fresh install (UN-updated) only downloading VB after first trying in install latest attempt ccminer2.2.5 for pirl.

What happens:
- my command prompt will pop up for a split second only, acting like somethings still mis-configured (my guess) or defender kills it (tried adding folders/files/.exe's as exclusions too).

What I've tried:
- run as admin; disable firewall & defender; re-formatting & installing fresh licensed copy no updates - after updates; different GPU's with device drivers installed of course only to watch wonderful windows' new policy circumvent ALL win 10 PRO services I'd disabled be re-enabled and gtx installed drivers auto-replaced with microsofts proprietary vers. ... ...

Mobo= z270
ram=4g
GPU= 1060 6g zotac, or MSI, or whatever's laying around doesn't matter.

Plz help, I'd like to test-drive on my desktop b4 switching the rigs to un-tested stuff - Thnks in advance!

Sounds like you need to run your batch files from the command line so the window doesnt close when it fails and you can see whats actually happening.


You say you normally use linux distros. Linux is VASTLY superior to windows when it comes to mining. Why are you trying to run Windows?

Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.

And why do you try to debug it running batch files only instead of running it via command promt? If you lazy to cd into miner directory, you can use shift + right mouse button > open command promt here. Or if you even lazier than that just add pause at the end of batch file, e.g.:
Code:
EthDcrMiner64 --many-options-here
pause

I've ran batch directly in command prompt and it start's like it should........2 seconds later poof, gone.




A) OF course linux is VASTLY superior no argument here, reboots back/forth are a hasle so background mining/testing while in windows less confusing.
