Too all 3 of the last posted.

Close the wallet.

If you are on windows - Right click the shortcut to the wallet and go to the end of the shortcut location and after it was /huntercoin-qt.exe" -rescan

Then press OK and then reopen the wallet with the shortcut.

Try that.

what rescan? i don't understand

it worked for me. thx. i send some huc to poliniex address. it has 10 confirms but is not there yet. can that coins be lost ?

right click on you huntercoin-qt shortcut and properties. In the target text at the end add " -rescan" (space -rescan)  

Ok, I'm a noob and I've seen people say open client with -rescan, but not sure what it means.  A couple of pages back this ^ was posted before and as a newbie I'm not 100% certain what that means.  If I'm reading this correctly, I would take the following actions:

1. Go to my local folder where I have installed the Huntercoin-QT
1. Right-click on the "huntercoin-qt" file
2. SELECT "Properties"
3. In the "General" tab, type in " -rescan" to the end of the "huntergoin-qt" text in the text box.  NOTE: ensure there is a space between qt and -rescan.
4. Click "OK"
5. Double click the "huntercoin-qt -rescan" file to launch wallet.

Is that correct?  And if it is, isn't that the same as right-click >> rename >> append " -rescan" to the filename?  

Whenever I tried this, nothing happened. The wallet doesn't open (which I kind of expected).


go to where you installed it... the folder itself.. and you should see the URL at the top... click it.. and it will give you a long link..

"C:\fdslkfjasdlkfjas\adsfadsfasd\fsdafsadf\FolderNameWhereHUCIsInstalled\huntercoin-qt.exe -rescan" <--- without quotes

Gothcha.  Thanks.  Now that makes more sense.

Out of curiosity, what exactly does the "-rescan" do?
