Hi everyone!

I'm a young french boy,so my language is not too "perfect"!

I need some help from you...

I've a problem with bitcoin core : I was refreshing (synchronizing) it,but,suddenly,it told me on the window : "Error : a fatal internal error occurred,see debug.log for details."

Since this,it's IMPOSSIBLE to open it... The message appears when the blocks are "checking" (with %). Same,after re-installed it 4 times. (last time 10 minutes ago)
I've save my first "wallet.dat"(this where I had money),the problem is that I can't open bitcoin core...

I had some money on my wallet,and I wouldn't want to lost it... Does someone can help me?


Thank you early! And tell me if you don't understand something!

If you have a backup of the wallet.dat file with your bitcoins in it, just go to the hidden bitcoin directory and erase everything there. The location varies depending if you are using Windows or Linux.

After erasing that directory, install Bitcoin core again and replace the wallet.dat file with your saved wallet.dat file.
