There are so many options, it is easy to do.

bitcoind has no option to disable/enable the wallet at start
It needs to be compiled w/o the wallet feature. Default install is with a wallet

Question: How do I run the daemon only -- without the wallet -- after installing Core on a Windows 7 computer?

[I don't want to use the wallet just now -- only support the network with a full node.]

I should think there's a way to start and run the daemon from a command line prompt.  What's the command, and in what directory do I find it?  Thanks, much.

Edit: In the daemon directory folder, I see two files -- bitcoin-cli & bitcoind .. the former much smaller than the latter.  I'd guess maybe I can just run one of these from a command prompt.. but which one?  Thanks again.
