Hello Taek! I and my friend found interesting bug  Grin

I download wallet version 0.3.0 from internet and launch file  sia.exe without extract arhive.
After this procedure my friend send me 3000 sia coins and after network found new block, i can see this coin in my balans.
But i close program and launch sia.exe after 6 hours- i see that my coins we be lost. I think- process SIA.exe can*t write information about new adress in file wallet.dat, if I launch sia.exe from rar arhive.

Need blocked  opportunity to launch sia.exe without  extract rar arhive

so if i understood this correctly ... you executed the app FROM the archive itself? ...

if so - this will not run as it does in normal operation ... no package 'normally' runs through the archive itself unless designed to ...

it is needed that the archive is extracted to a directory - and run from the directory for any files to be updated - as most apps ( sia included ) will not recompress and rearchive the changed files to the .rar archive ...

if you the wallet.dat file that you used when transferring the other coins ( which will have all your original settings and address in it ) then you can get your coins back ...

at least thats the theory ... but it MUST be the original wallet.dat file that you used ( which 'should' still be in the roaming directory under windows ) ...
