I am trying to get the windows wallet working. After installing, "CannabisCoin Error - Incorrect or no genesis block found. Wrong datadir for network?", program closes. I installed the windows wallet a few weeks ago, and it synced fine after some time, then it was uninstalled. I cleaned the computer with ccleaner. I am on windows 7 ultimate 64-bit. I tried both windows wallet, and windows fast wallet. Can someone please help?

@acad14n

If you had coins in your wallet I do so hope you saved your wallet.dat file, if not you have possibly lost them.

Windows 7... Okay, go to the start menu and type %appdata% into the search box, complete with the "%" at both ends.

Windows should offer you "Roaming" in the results, click on that and a folder window should open.

You are looking for a directory named CannabisCoin. It is possible that by installing both wallet installs Windows has made more than one such directory with slight changes to the names.

If you had coins in your wallet then save the wallet.dat file from the directory labelled "CannabisCoin" to somewhere you can find it again easily (Downloads or Desktop, anywhere handy) as this may be your original wallet.dat file.

After doing so you can then uninstall CannabisCoin and delete the CannabisCoin directory, along with any CannabisCoin[1] or similar which Windows may have created.

Now install just the plain vanilla version of CannabisCoin, you don't need the "fast" version as we are going to use the latest bootstrap file.

Start your wallet and then stop it after a minute or two, that will create the correct directory structure. If you saved a wallet.dat file you can copy it back now, replacing the new wallet.dat file created with the new directory structure.

Download the bootstrap.dat file from here: https://mega.co.nz/#!XcBkxKKa!C_u1FVhBnGM09ZHnMOUfQ-utFH1A5gwEBSIpf7jtR0g, unzip it to %AppData%\Roaming\CannabisCoin and then restart your wallet, that will take you up to about 670K block height reasonably quickly, after which your wallet should complete downloading the block chain from the network.

Feel free to PM me here if you are having difficulty.

Good luck and have a nice day

But how do I get the fast version to work?

It is exactly the same wallet, just comes with some of the blockchain already downloaded. The use of the bootstrap download I listed above is even faster.

Edit: Let me make that slightly clearer, both downloads are CannabisCoin-0.8.6.3b. The "fast setup" version is now redundant, I should have that link removed. The only difference in the two is that the "fast setup" install includes a small portion of the block chain but it is out of date, the bootstrap file contains much more of the block chain and is now the faster installation method.
