Which version are you using?

I explained in my post that I would rather not close bitcoin core because it seems stuck downloading the "last 9 hours" of the blockchain and if I close it I might get the reindex problem again, so that' why I wanted to open armory, to see if I can check my offline wallets now, but without closing bitcoin core for the reason explained. So I can do it? there's an option in armory?...to uncheck that option I'd have to open armory at the same time as bitcoin core open now. Want to make sure it's ok to do so before opening armory.

Thanks for your reply.

You only need to open Armory for syncing when Bitcoin Core is run as a background process to download blockchain. You don't need to run Bitcoin Core manually for downloading blocks. That is why, I am asking "why you need to run Bitcoin Core and Armory simultaneously?" Why don't you run Armory alone?
