In windows after shift right click choose "open cmd window here" > type "kore-qt -reindex. This will rebuild blockchain index from current blk000.dat files on startup.
First time setting up wallet. I entered listen=0 and staking=1 in conf file. Deleted folders mentioned above. I am not sure what you mean "In windows after? shift right click choose "open cmd window here"....Shift Right Click does nothing.
