@Turpomann Thank for details information forr Windows 7 user.

I use external computer on Linux.

First please sync your old windows wallet and make backup wallet.dat.


On linux:
./hotcoind listaccounts

next we create new account ex name update
./hotcoind getnewaddress update

return is your transfer address ex HEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWY

Check is it done
./hotcoind listaccounts

If you lost your new account address

./hotcoind getaddressesbyaccount update
[
    "HEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWY"
]

Now you must transfer from windows wallet to new address HEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWY
You probably pay tx fee . Probably you should send yours HOT in few small part (transaction size limit).

After transfer you can check
./hotcoind listtransactions

ans see when you get 6 confirmations

./hotcoind listaccounts
show your balance after transactions was confirmed.

now please install new version wallet on Windows

If it is done, we can send money form linux to windows by
./hotcoind sendfrom LINUX_WALLET_ACCOUNT_NAME WINDOWS_HOTCOIN_NEW_ADDRESS 123.4567890

ex.

./hotcoind sendfrom update HEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWY 220.22

you can split your transaction into few part.

Wait until windows wallet not confirm transactions 6 times .. now
you can encrypt your wallet and make backup wallet.dat in to safe place

I think it's not good idea to break wallet.dat compatibility. This makes upgrading to new wallet very complicated, imho.

Here is my very detailed instructions(It's drinking game too!) on how to do it with one Windows 7 computer. Please, excuse my bad engrish.

1. Drink couple beers. Backup your wallet.dat to usb stick or to some other folder in your hdd, create many backups just in case. You can find your wallet.dat in: C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\hotcoin
2. Delete your hotcoin folder in Roaming. Again, make sure you made backup of your wallet.dat before you do it. Drink beer.
2. Go to your hotcoin-qt 1.05 folder (example: C:\hotcoin-qt)
3. Copy your wallet.dat to your hotcoin-qt 1.05 folder. (optional: drink beer or two)
3. Right click hotcoin-qt.exe and choose Create shortcut.
4. Right click hotcoin-qt.exe - Shortcut and choose Properties.
5. Use -datadir= parameter in Target line (example: C:\hotcoin-qt\hotcoin-qt.exe -datadir=C:\hotcoin-qt)
6. VERY IMPORTANT: Start Wallet with hotcoin-qt.exe - Shortcut and let it synch. (Only use shortcut from now on, never the .exe file anymore. If you start with the .exe file, program creates hotcoin folder to C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\ again. We don't want that! If you accidentally start with the .exe, close the program and delete hotcoin folder in Roaming again. Drink couple beers if you want.)
7. When synching is done, copy your hotcoin-qt folder to somewhere else (example: D:\hotcoin-qt)
8. Now you should have two hotcoin-qt folders on your hdd. (example: one on C:\ and other in D:\)
9. Go to your newly copied hotcoin-qt folder(example: D:\hotcoin-qt)
10. Modify shortcut to target that folder. (example: D:\hotcoin-qt\hotcoin-qt.exe -datadir=D:\hotcoin-qt)
11. Download hotcoin wallet 1.06. Extract it to your D:\hotcoin-qt folder, let it overwrite all. (optional: drink beer)
12. Delete wallet.dat file in your new D:\hotcoin-qt. Start Wallet with shortcut. Encrypt your new wallet now. You might want to drink beer now, go ahead. Hell, drink two if you feel like it.
13. Copy your new wallet in D:\hotcoin-qt to somewhere safe. Do not overwrite you backed up old wallet! Create new backups for your new wallet.dat! Drink beer.
14. Start your new Wallet again. Copy receive address to clipboard. Close new wallet.
15. Open your old Wallet in C:\hotcoin-qt. Remember to do it with shortcut. Open Send page and paste your new wallet address to Pay to: line and send your hotcoins to your new wallet. Close program and drink beer.
16. Open new Wallet in D:\hotcoin-qt and see your received coins from the old wallet. Might take some time, so drinking a few beers is not a bad idea at all.
17. When you are sure that you have received all your coins from the old wallet, you can delete all of your old wallet backups and keep only the new wallet version backups. You may delete your old wallet folder in C:\ now.
18. Drink few beers and go to bed.  

1.06 download link: http://dl.hot-coin.org:90/1.06/hotcoin-qt.zip

Important Warning:  You must back up the wallet.dat.

1.06 version update wallet.dat struct, support transaction message.

Upgrade steps:
1, open two computers, one running old version, one run version 1.06
2, send old version's coin to the version 1.06 wallet address

I'm sorry, support the transaction message must change the structure of the wallet，
Bring to you some trouble, I'm sorry.

good news !!!

OK, nice

Yes, 1.06 version will be released in the coming days.

nice collection Hot Hotcoins

Need to dump my 100k Hots 

as we all

People don't sleep DIg Dig Dig

i hope hotcoin will grow better in the future 

The author of that thread criticized all the coins in addition to this he want to dig.
Anyone can start this type of thread and criticize.

Hotcoin is not devoid of drawbacks :
- Premine : most of these coins was ( and is ) used for prizes , promotion , giveaway etc.
- Minor problems with communication : Not everyone was so fortunate to have been born in a country where English is the official language . For many, English is 2 or 3 or 4 language, which had a chance to get to know . Although English is a simple language (compared to eg Hungarian, Finnish, Polish or Chinese) not everyone has the ability to quickly and easily learn languages.
So please all native speakers for your understanding
100 years ago ( and earlier) fashionable ( in Europe) was a knowledge of French .
Later (> 1945) for 50 years half of Europe was forced to learn Russian (much harder than English, especially by alphabet).

Fashion is changing so maybe someday English ceases to be on top language and the Chinese or Hindi will dominate the world and English native speakers - come to take for learning another language. UK government today urged them to learn foreign languages​​.

- Technical problems with the wallet and checkpoints . There are but are resolved fairly quickly.
- No new working source code. Soon to be available.

Pros:
+ Small number of coins , only 29 million
+ Cool name
+ Continuous support by developer
+ Coin evolution from standard Scrypt (similar to Litecoin) toward the coin - type mining mainly by the CPU
+ Everyone can dig 40 coins block using an ordinary PC you do not need super-efficient GPU rig. Now is the low level of difficulty.
   It all depends on luck


Instead of just criticizing it is worth considering if you can do something to help the coin to develop.


Best Regards
