I put the file lightwallet.exe in the same folder with the file simplewallet.exe but a graphical shell is still not started. What am I doing wrong?

Did you find a 32 bit copy of simplewallet? The one on getmonero is 64 bit and won't work on your computer.

Hmm, I haven't tested with the 32 bit binaries. Could you tell me where you downloaded them from and I'll try to test it out this weekend or next (not sure I'll get to it today or tomorrow and then I'm traveling for a week)?

OK, thanks, I didn't realize they had 32 bit builds there now. I'll see if it works for me and PM you when I get around to it.

Hi everybody, just to be sure : the latest version of Lightwallet works flawlessly with the latest version of Monero, right ?

I wouldn't say flawlessly. There are some issues with recording transaction history, but afaik it should work fine for sending, receiving, and checking balance.

I just downloaded the client from https://getmonero.org/getting-started/choose , since I want to remove all my Altcoin holdings from various exchanges However, when I tried to create a wallet it didn't do anything. System is a clean W10 installation specifically set up just for backing up various coin wallets to cold storage media. Is there some setting that I need to do beforehand? Other Light Wallets (e.g. Dogecoin) worked out of the box. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FLx4D8dY.gif&t=665&c=EwHeaxOmXOYqjQ)

why do i still have to sync up from scratch? I thought this is the reason to use a light wallet, so i don't need to download the whole chain ?

You don't sync the blockchain, but your wallet has to scan each block to look for transactions, so it has to request the blocks from a local or remote daemon. In newer versions of simplewallet you can only scan from the time the wallet was created, which would be way faster for new wallets, but this hasn't been released in a binary yet I don't think.

No, I think it should prompt you that the password was wrong and try again. That sucks ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) There's not really any way to save the wallet state before it's finished syncing, afaik. I've never heard of that shutting down behavior before though. Maybe try to open it in simplewallet directly and see what's going on?

opening in simplewallet works. But now i cant use it. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) The strange thing is the same thing happens for me with Factomd as well. As soon as it synced it shuts down...
