Thank you for your help.
It seems to have worked itself out somehow. I actually uninstalled Armory, then reinstalled Armory on my C: drive, but kept bitcoin core on a separate drive. I also reindexed bitcoin core through the windows cmd line.
Armory shows I am connected however the only hiccup seems to be that I cannot save any settings related to transfer fees, lol.

Yes, I had check this before when I was searching the forums but I double checked again and Bitcoin Core is definitely NOT in pruned mode.
I opened the bitcoin.conf on windows 10 with the notepad text editor and the file shows that there is nothing inside.

Ok, let's try to fix the errors below first.
Code:
2020-11-25 19:23:41 (ERROR) -- BDM.pyc:268 - setSatoshiDir: directory does not exist: C:\Users\cd110\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin
2020-11-25 19:23:43 (ERROR) -- BDM.pyc:197 - DB error: C:\Users\****\AppData\Roaming/Bitcoin/blocks is not a valid path
2020-11-25 19:23:43 (ERROR) -- BDM.pyc:197 - DB error: C:\Users\****\AppData\Roaming/Bitcoin/blocks is not a valid path
Can you edit the armoryqt.conf just like what you did above.
Something like this
Code:
satoshi-datadir="F:\Programs\Bitcoin\blocks"
dbdir="F:\Programs\ArmoryDB"
dbdir="F:\Programs\ArmoryDB"
Make sure the directory is correct so before you put this check them manually if these are the correct folder path for blocks and ArmoryDB.
Save them then restart everything or restart the whole PC to make the setting take effect.

Are you running Bitcoin core in pruned mode? Armory won't work if the Bitcoin core is running in pruned mode.
Check the settings of the bitcoin core or check the bitcoin.conf if you see something like "prune=" remove it and save.
This thread below has the same issue as yours and I think it would be better if you follow the other suggestions from this thread.

OK I have litterally changed NO settings or File Paths at all, I started Core Manually first (is running) and ' Let Armory run Bitcoin Core/ bitcoind in the background' is unchecked...
yet...
My error logs are different now and paths that were once being seen by Armory are now missing.
What am I doing wrong??

EDIT: I checked the task manager and ArmoryDB was running as a background process which is probably what caused this.

Let me start by saying I have been going through many posts here, searching google and trying lots of different settings and NOTHING seems to be working. I know you guys here are SOO tired of posts like mine here, but I really am doing this as a last resort as I am about to loose my shit trying to get my Armory wallet back online.
OS: Windows 10
Bitcoin Core: v0.20.0
Armory: v 0.96.5-beta
Core Path:
https://i.ibb.co/TKyzVSX/Screenshot-14.png
I have bitcoin core installed and armory installed on a separate drive, so I put config file named armoryqt.conf into the file path C:\Users\****\AppData\Roaming\Armory using the info from https://btcarmory.com/docs/pathing
I tried using a armoryqt.conf that contained the following:
Didnt work so I switched to the GUI settings to store my file paths.
https://i.ibb.co/sv4bN7w/Screenshot-16.png
This worked somewhat, and when I start Armory, the node status bar will fill up and it will begin building databases. However, Armory will always state 'Node offline (0 blocks)'.
ALSO, as soon as I start Armory I will get a Widows Notification telling me that " Connection to bitcoin core client lost. Armory cannot send or receive bitcoins until the connection is reestablished "
I have also tried starting Bitcoin Core Manually first, make sure it is fully synced and I will get the same error notification from Windows. I also tried to 'check' and 'uncheck' the Armory setting that allow core to be managed in the background.
I also let Armory sit for close to 6 hours to let it build and scan databases, hoping that afterwards it would suddenly jump online. It never did.
How do I know Core is fully synced?
When I first installed it, it took a couple days and had a progress bar at the bottom. Now whenever I start Core again after a day or two it will show a progress bar, and take only a few minutes to catch up on transactions.
Finally, Here are my error logs:
https://pastebin.com/GCZr29wS
The last thing I can think of but really don't want to do is reinstall Bitcoin Core.
Thank you so much for any HELP!
