Alright I've never done this and I'm going to need some help  Tongue
So bad news is my PC crashed and I cant get a solid consistent boot out of it, even worse news was my wallet was on it  Embarrassed
Good news is I was able to get on it just long enough to get all my wallet files off of it. Now the help I need is restoring my wallet onto my laptop till I can get my PC fixed. how do I go about doing this I know I need a new client but I'm not sure what files need to be replaced. Also if you guys can help with this could you run me through the bootstrap as well because I might as well download that too while I'm restoring my wallet. Thanks so much Guys!!!!

P.S. I've always put aside backing up my wallet but now that this has actually happened to me I can't say how much I am kicking myself now, so if you are like me and are putting it off DON'T back it up now you wont regret the few seconds it takes!

Only thing you have to do , is launch the client for the first time to creat the dir. After that you go to the dir here : C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Hyper and unpack the HYPER bootstrap.rar there. After that you copy your wallet.dat backup and drop it inside the same folder.

HYPER blockchain bootstrap is now live.

Here's how to use it:

Firstly make sure you make a backup of your wallet.dat BEFORE doing this. Also make sure your HYPER wallet is CLOSED and not running before commencing.

1.) Download the HYPER bootstrap from https://mega.co.nz/#!uR83RC6L!-OCSSqCSCvljMhnvFNP8qYU5vtANB9M3Y2TiYAQTqGU File is over 400 MB (it's a big blockchain!) so be patient while it downloads.

2.) Search in windows for %appdata% in search. Find HYPER folder and open it.

3.) Unpack the rar and copy all the files into your HYPER folder in %appdata%

4.) Replace all

5.) Open your HYPER wallet again and you should be fully synced or much closer! You just need to d/l the remaining few thousand blocks.


After this you just drop your wallet.dat file that you did backup and drop it into the same DIR as you unpacked the bootstrap in. ( C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Hyper )  Now you should see your HYPER balance when you have started your client and are fully synced! Smiley

Edit: sry If I didn't help you much

Thank you so much! My new wallet is up and syncing and I've already got some of the coins back, My question is now is my address the same or do I get a new one, and do I need to re-encrypt it or does it still have the same password encryption on it, again thanks a ton!

EDIT: And I can't wait for all the good HYPER new to come!!!!!!
