I'm a Windows 10 user. I had a working GUI in 11.0 (it took forever to get it working but yes it worked) and now I don't in 12.0. I've sent money after the fork using 11.0 (ignorant to the fork) and not only can I not get that back but I can't get the 12.0 GUI to load it at all. It works in the low-graphics mode but not the regular mode. How to resolve this?

  • Use that ^ guide to resolve your issue. Also, I am not entirely sure what the issue is with getting it to work if it starts with the start-low-graphics-mode.batbatch file. Note that the devs are aware that the graphics fallback is not working properly and this will be fixed in the upcoming point release. – dEBRUYNE Apr 26 '18 at 08:40
  • Thanks I have another question why wouldnt the devs update themselves to prevent this type of annoyance? Wouldnt that make more sense for the software to update itself?? – maddkatt Apr 28 '18 at 21:25
  • This was a bit of an oversight on our side. It should be a lot smoother the next fork, i.e., you, most likely, will not have to perform any manual steps to correct your blockchain. In sum, merely upgrading should be sufficient next time. – dEBRUYNE Apr 29 '18 at 14:33

Your funds are not gone as long as you kept your keys and know your passphrase. Have you tried running the GUI using a different computer?

  • With all respect and apologies this isn't going that well and I have a right to be frustrated and frankly that's what the large print is indicating – maddkatt Apr 28 '18 at 21:21

Take a bit of time and learn Debian Linux. It's simple and completely free. Runs circles around Windows 10. Crypto currencies work much better without Windows issues, including Monero.
