Guys,

I tried to post this on siaui forum but it says I dont have enough prviliedge, I can't bloody sort it out. Please help.

I had siaui working fine two days ago. I am now upgrading, I click siaui and it says it is loading, then this error message comes up after about 30 mins.

Error:A critical error loading Sia has occured: Siad unexpectedly exited. Error log: Loading...
(0/6) Loading siad...
(1/6) Loading gateway...
(2/6) Loading consensus...
(3/6) Loading transaction pool...
(4/6) Loading wallet...
(5/6) Loading host...
(6/6) Loading renter...
Closing host...
Closing wallet...
Closing transaction pool...
Closing consensus set...
Closing gateway...
invalid argument


I found this error fix on the website here, but this is very difficult for me because I am not to tech savvy and I do not save mine on the C drive I use my D drive to save room on the main drive. His advice was this:

Ok I've found my own solution in Windows 10 after trying a combination of things.

This is what I did:

Go to cmd and run as administrator
Cd into your Sia-UI-v1.2.2-win32-x64\resources\app\Sia directory
Type siad.exe and hit enter
After all 6/6 are loaded, you can open the Sia-UI.
It works for me, I hope this solution will help others that have similar issues

I don't know how but I spent a couple of hours punching this randomly into CMD and it eventually worked once, but I forgot how I did it, needless to say it was pointed to D:.

It loaded up to 6 in cmd, then when I opened siaui it got stuck on not synchronizing.

So I know the fix for that, I deleted the consensus.db.

Now I try again and this time the error comes up. But this time I can't get the cmd commands to work.

I don't know what I should type because my siad.exe is located in :

D:\Dprogramfiles\Sia\resources\app\Sia

If I try open cmd, type that it gets an error. If I type d: and then try, I still get the error.

So now I can't even get the above commands to work at all.

So I am stuck, can't login to siaui at all and can't use these commands.

Am I doing something wrong becasue mine is on D drive?

Again, I am not too tech savvy so any help is greatly appreciated so I can access my wallet on siaui.
