Need help



  • Can't find a thread about this but can someone please make a tutorial on how to install the wallet GUI and everything hosted wise to get started on windows? I currently have external hard drives and also unsure how to switch the host over to them instead of my pc's hard drive. When I try to add a host to my C drive it says that I do not have the privilege. When I then turned administrator on for siac and siad it says it added the folders but I can not find the folders



  • The guide here is pretty good. The examples are from linux, but there is practically no difference for Windows except for the paths (e.g. ".\siac" instead of "./siac"). If you need the GUI, it's better to wait untill 1.0 or RC are released.
    To find out where your storage folders are, you can run "siac host -v", it'll show configuration information including folder(s) address(es) and size(s). If you don't see the folder(s) on your hard drive, that's because you should create them manually, siad does do that currently.
