Great! It works! Great thanks for you guys, who helped me!
So the algorythm for newbies is the next one (thanks to
equipoise +
my comments):
1) Download the Windows 64 bit binaries from the official page:
http://monero.cc/.
Here they are:
http://monero.cc/downloads/monero.win.x64.latest.zip2) Extract it in folder of your choice (for example
D:\XMR)
3) Create a new file named runXMR.bat file with this commands in it:
Code:
@echo off
tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq bitmonerod.exe" 2>NUL | find /I /N "bitmonerod.exe">NUL
if not %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (
echo Starting node...
start /MIN bitmonerod.exe --seed-node 62.210.78.186:18080 --seed-node 195.12.60.154:18080 --seed-node 54.241.246.125:18080 --seed-node 107.170.157.169:18080 --seed-node 54.207.112.216:18080 --seed-node 78.27.112.54:18080 --seed-node 209.222.30.57:18080 --seed-node 80.71.13.55:18080 --seed-node 107.178.112.126:18080
) else (
echo Node already started.
)
tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq simplewallet.exe" 2>NUL | find /I /N "simplewallet.exe">NUL
if not %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (
if exist wallet.bin.keys (
echo Starting previous wallet...
start simplewallet.exe --wallet wallet.bin
) else (
echo Starting new wallet...
start simplewallet.exe --generate-new-wallet wallet.bin
)
) else (
echo Wallet already started.
)
4) For fast synchronization with the network:
a.) Download the win 64x blockchain from the OP. A link:
http://monero.cc/downloads/blockchain/win/blockchain.bin b.) Place it in a folder you created already. For example
D:\XMR5) Double click the
runXMR.bat file you've just created - this will open both the daemon (it'll start sync) and the wallet
5.1) On first run you'll create the wallet. You'll be asked about password
ONCE.
6) Write down the 24 words it gives you - with those you'll be able to recover the wallet without knowing the password (you could use copy/paste). Keep it safe!
7). After synchronisation process finishes (an hour or so) - Quit the wallet with
'q' and 'enter'7.1).Run the runXMR.bat file again - type your password to decrypt the wallet and you'll be sure you know the right password.
8.) BACKUP your wallet (there will be 3 files - wallet.bin, wallet.bin.keys and wallet.bin.address.txt, but the most important file is the .keys file)
Cool After the daemon sync enter 'refresh' in the wallet.
You could use 'help' in both daemon (bitmonerod) and simplewallet to see all the commands but 'refresh' and 'q' ('exit') are the most used (also 'transfer' obviously).
9. For comfort use download and install GUI.
You can see info on the first page of this thread.
9.1 I choosed this one:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xmr-monerox-a-cross-platform-graphical-account-manager-for-monero-683365 only because it was the first in the list. ;]
9.2 Install GUI and setup it as listed on a screenshot:
https://i.imgur.com/8zcaUET.png9.3 Wait until syhchronisation process will finish. In my case it has taken about 30-40 minutes.
10. E-N-J-O-Y Mining and trading Monero!
I'll start today.
I really hope it can help to someone who wants to join this community.
