MY laptop wont allow electron to run? antivirus keeps shutting it down, is it safe to use?
I honestly don't know... The source code looks "clean" (it was forked from Electrum and the code changes are publicly visible)... but there is no way to know if the binaries represent the source code we can see or have been compiled from different sources.One option is to download the source code and compile it yourself... or run from the sources directly (install Python, clone git and run the python code directly).
Another option is to run it in a Virtual Machine so that it is sandboxed and can't touch anything else.
ill keep them for now, add it to my portfolio and eventually get more if it seems right. Any suggestions on a good wallet?

It will be faster to use ElectronCash than to do a reindex... The coins should show in ElectronCash almost instantly when you import your key.
Are you wanting access to BCC to dump them? or are you intending on using them long term? That might also influence your decision as to the best wallet to use.

would it be easier to reindex or just do the electrum? haha
it says it is on 479847? but that it is also 3 hours behind? that block is past the block you mentioned... I wonder if it is running on the original blockchain?
I looked it up and followed directions that said use the debug console, then import private key and entered the private key at that time
That is exactly what your issue is... your Bitcoin ABC is on the BTC blockchain... this won't work at all I looked it up and followed directions that said use the debug console, then import private key and entered the private key at that time
Did you have an install of Bitcoin Core that you copied the blocks from after the fork or something? To see the BCC in ABC, you'll need to try reindexing (or possibly have to resync from scratch as I don't think you can just remove the incompatible blocks)...
Your other option is to just use Electron Cash... and import your key there... you won't need to download the whole blockchain...

OK... that is a good start, it means that your BCC is still attached to the address/private key of your paper wallet.
In ABC, is it fully synced and up to block #478902? ("Help -> Debug Window -> Information")
How exactly did you import your paper wallet private key into ABC?

my paper wallet shows positive BCC on bulldozer. that address is in my ABC wallet, I do not know what my actual ABC wallet is as I have never used this before.
I just checked, the paper wallet address on bulldozer does show a positive balance of BCC.
check your "BCC address" here: www.blockdozer.com or here: https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin%20cash/explorer/
Does it show a positive balance?

good afternoon all, I need some help. it has to do with Bitcoin cash (BCC)
so I am not new to all this but I am stuck.
So before the fork I moved my original bitcoin (BTC) from my blockchain.info address to a paper address with private key.
the fork occurs. 5 days later I import BTC from my paper address and private key into my blockchain.info wallet. then transfer it from the import wallet address to the default wallet for blockchain.info.
now the problem. I download the full node on Bitcoin ABC for BCC. I Imported the wallet and private key from my paper wallet (same one as BTC earlier) to bitcoin ABC. It now shows the BCC value received on 7/30/17 oddly enough, and then it shows a outgoing fee, I imagine from when I transferred the BTC earlier? but it has my BCC in watch only. not in the available to use section...
What did I miss or do wrong? and is this fixable?
any help is greatly appreciated
