Syncing with blockchain?
More than 24 hours

try close wallet, delete node.db, restart wallet and rescan on local node.

should work.. if not, jump in the discord channel and i'll look further for you.
What I like doing -- if you don't need any past transaction history -- is just delete your Beam Wallet (make sure you have your twelve word passphrase or you'll never see your Beam again). Now, you also need to delete the directory because I think the Beam uninstall leaves them alone.

An odd thing I noticed the first time I attempted this was that after entering my passphrase to restore my coins, the sync process still didn't sync. I didn't see the estimated time remaining. If this happens you need to again uninstall the wallet and delete the directory again (Beam Wallet). For some reason I discovered the third try was a charm: perhaps some initial files hang around awhile. Oh, actually I created a fresh wallet with new passphrase...then immediately uninstalled it and deleted the Beam Wallet directory. Finally at this point I downloaded the Beam Windows wallet a final time and restored with the passphrase and my coins synced in 10 minutes. Grin

Important: As I said, be certain you have the correct twelve word passphrase before attempting this.
