Re: [ANN] Sia - Decentralized Storage - Working Beta - Currency has been released
Ok, to stop siad on W7: NOT USING TASK MANAGER
Using CMD prompt, change directory (cd) to, example command line: cd C:\Users\XXX\Desktop\Sia-UI-v0.4.2-beta-win64\Sia-UI-v0.4.2-beta-win64\resources\app\Sia (or wherever you have you SIA 4.2 directory) in my case it is on my desktop.
Then type: siac stop
Got the message: Sia daemon stopped
Restarted wallet, unlocked it, all good.
Just not sure if I did not do the above step to close siad, and I do a PC restart will that corrupt file again? I don't feel like testing that lol.... in the event of a power failure, PC shut down etc. that could result in corrupt files again.... we will need a better way to totally close siad in the future so there is NO risk of corruption in any way

Yeah, good question. I'd use Siac to avoid the possible inconvenience, which is what it is. I don't like the fact that I have two wallet files, one for the imported wallet and one for the new. I wonder if I should just send all my coins associated with the imported address to the new seed associated address. Hm... maybe do a few tests first.
