Hi,
I have downloaded bootstrap.dat and just looking for some help regarding this damn folder: Appdata\Roaming\Bitcoin. I just can't find it.
Bitcoin core 64bit is just taking ages to sync.
Any advise?
Not Appdata.
%AppData%
The % symbols are necessary.
The location of %AppData% depends on the version of Windows you are using. The bitcoin data directories can typically be found here:
XP
C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Application data\Bitcoin (XP)
Vista & 7
C:\Users\YourUserName\Appdata\Roaming\Bitcoin
Note that the %AppData% folder is typically hidden by default. You might have a difficult time browsing to the folder with explorer. However, if you go to:
Start -> Run
(or press WinKey+R)
Then you can enter:
%APPDATA%\Bitcoin
and Bitcoins data folder should open.
