I've never had to deal with an update, being still new to all altcoin stuff. I've downloaded the new wallet from the post Digibyte put up, and of course I have not addresses, I am assuming as I did not have any DGB in my wallet and had only used 1 address while trying to set up my miner that it doesn't really matter and I am essentially starting from fresh right?
Also what happened to pickaxe pool. I had a few DGB on there (459 maybe) not much at all i know but it was just what I earned while I was testing but I can't even load up the site now.
Rather than downloading the whole new wallet what should I have done to keep the addresses I had generated ( thinking of future updates when I actually have a wallet with something in it to want to keep)
1. if you didn't have any coins or generate any addresses yet, then it's ok to simply start fresh. Otherwise make sure to keep the wallet.dat file (also back it up regularly) as that is the file that contains your private keys -> the stuff that uniquely identifies you as the owner of the coins in your wallet.
2. pickaxe pool appears to be down. As far as I know there was no announcement or anything. I think they are having issues with their server and or hosting provider (again?).
I take it don't have a wallet.dat file in the wallet folder because i've not yet sent any coins to my wallet and or backed it up yet??
OK something i didn't expect, leaving Digishield version over night and my 2 addreses i've generated appeared. And when I load v1 the addresses aren't in that wallet any more. So presumably I can delete V1.1 now? Where would I find this .dat file normally?
EDIT: OK I've found the .dat file and presumably it picks up the addresses because of that file right? Next question Am I better off using the back up wallet button within the wallet of simply copying that .dat file to another location for security.. or is that the same thing
...so much I don't know sorry for all the questions
