Armory wallet and Qt

[dmc123dmc2]

Hi, I have a quick question.

Can I use bitcoin core as a wallet  and armory as a separate wallet on the same machine?

Would they interfere with one and other as they both use core?

You can. Armory basically uses Bitcoin Core as a server to obtain all the information and they build their database based on it. Armory can only work when bitcoind is present and running at the specified directory. You can certainly be running Bitcoin Core and Armory at separate times since Armory won't make any changes that makes it incompatible.

However, since Armory starts bitcoind at start up, you have to disable that if you want to run Bitcoin Core and Armory simultaneously. You can run bitcoin-qt first then Armory after you've done that.
