I need help. I just opened my wallet today for minting and noticed that it's not syncing anymore. Then I saw the mandatory update to 1.7 wallet (i'm on 1.5 now) in OP and need your help. I'm a tech newb and I'd appreciate if anyone can take me step by step process on how to update wallet. Safest method will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

You need to make sure you can see hidden files and folders on your operating system. then go to your users/appdata/mintcoin folder and backup your wallet.dat somewhere. Then delete all the other files leaving behind only your super important wallet.dat file. Then run the updated mintcoin client.

"Then delete all other files.." Do you mean all the files in users/appdata/mintcoin folder (except wallet.dat) and then download/run the 1.7 wallet?

Yup you should have a mintcoin folder with just your wallet.dat and then run version 1.7

Thanks! Looks like it worked! =)
