Armory, two problems (online and scanning transactions history)

[deliciousdelux]

I don't understand why is so difficult to get a wallet online.

Where is your blockchain data? Did you set a custom folder? Armory cannot find your block data in the default location. Without that, it cannot operate.

I've just gave you the  information you asked me for, and you ask me more info? How does this work?

I'm looking for answers. This seems like a scam. I  hope I'm wrong.

This is where Armory is looking for your block data. According to your second post, this folder does not exist. According to your first post, you downloaded the blockchain over the course of 6-7 days. Armory needs access to that data, you need to tell it where to find it if it's not in the default location. It can't just guess that for you.

I've asked you for the location of your block data 3 times now, and I still haven't got an answer. Put yourself in my shoes.

The folder exxist, however Appdata is a hidden folder.

is C:\Program Files\Bitcoin "block data-adress"?


I bought BTC via Safello, they switched from Segwit to Taproot - is there any wallet I can download and send the $30-worth off BTC there instead? Armory seems to advanced for me.

If you understand how to use the armory wallet you won't get any problem. If you are a newbie next time use only the lite version of wallet like Electrum.

Anyway, if you want to get the BTC from the armory the fastest way is to export the private key from your wallet and import it to any wallet like Electrum as a sample.
You can find the export under menu>wallet properties>backup this wallet you can follow this post below on how to export them.

No. That folder is where the Bitcoin application is installed to. By default, it will attempt to store it's data in the "AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin" directory.
However, if you specified a different folder when running Bitcoin Core for the first time, it will not be using that.

The quickest (and likely most foolproof) way to figure out where your Bitcoin Core data is to run Bitcoin Core manually... then in the "Window -> Information" window... check the "Datadir" value:



That will give you the exact location of where Bitcoin Core is storing it's block information. Also, given your previous debug, I suspect that you have "Pruning" enabled on your Bitcoin Core (check the "Settings -> Options -> Main" window)



If that "Prune" box is checked, you'll need to uncheck it... then shutdown and restart Bitcoin Core and then let it resync the entire blockchain (you will need 350+ gigs of free disk space to do this).

You would need to follow my tutorial here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4746784.msg43255691#msg43255691

That will allow you to export the private keys and then you could import/sweep those private keys to a different wallet.
