So many warnings in the claiming instructions...
How it is more risky to use the private key from Ledger Nano S in Agama, than using some other private key in Agama ??

"[Note: You can also use only with 1 Ledger Nano S for this purpose. But, you have to leave your funds exposed(!) for longer. Not recommended.]" ... Exposed to whom, where, how ??
I get the impression that there is some added danger there contrary to using only Agama without any hardwarewallet in the first place.

I'm reasoning that it must be a wrong impression because: Generating private key from the Nano S seed is done offline, logging in to Agama is done offline too (local signing) and resetting the Nano S is also done offline, so the seed/private key is not going anywhere from my PC. That means the only risk is stepping down from hardware-level security to software-level security only momentarily. If you don't have keyloggers, compromised wallet etc. it is not that big of a risk at all.
Is my reasoning reasonable ?

seems pretty reasonable.
Most people maybe are not as astute and have a blackbox "hardware wallet" which they trust is the most secure. By downshifting to where the seed is input into live systems it is less secure than leaving it in the hardware.

that being said by quickly transferring to a new hardware protected address, then it is indeed a short temporary degradation of security level.

another aspect is that by spending from that address, the pubkey will be published on the blockchain, so it loses its cold address security against Quantum Computers from the future

Why all of a sudden does the AgamaApp-0.2.0.25c-beta-windows-installer.exe that I had installed show 0 balance when it did show my 6 Komodo coins 3 weeks ago.
Also when I now try to re-install on my Window 7 computer this exe it says it can't find the file...which is what I'm double clicking on to install it.... It worked initially np.

So now after uninstalling the previous Agama AgamaApp-0.2.0.25c-beta-windows-installer.exe.
It showed the 6 coins a few weeks ago but now nothing.
The latest Agama wallet 2.0.26c says me previous wallet address key has incorrect WIF format.

The latest Agama wallet 2.0.26d won't even install because it says it can't find the file that I just clicked on....wth

Any help would be appreciated.
Thx!

1. Were you running the initial installation of Agama in Native or Lite mode?
2. I would look in the komodo blockchain explorer and check your address, if it shows your balance correctly then the coins are still there. If there is no balance then the coins might be on another address (which could be the case if you ran Agama in Native and made transactions)
3. If you ran Native, did you backup/save your wallet.dat file somewhere else?

Thanks for the reply.
No I initially ran Agama in the Lite mode and it showed 0.
Then I downloaded the latest and tried in the Native mode, still shows 0.
No I didn't backup my wallet.dat, I read that it doesn't keep your wallet.dat where the install is so I shouldn't of have to back it up...

But now when I go back to install any of the Agama wallets it says it can't find the .exe file that I'm clicking on.
Not sure then how to install the Agama if my download says it can't even find the file I'm clicking on...

I would first verify you have your KMD in your address. Go here and enter your address and see what your balance is. If you're KMD are there, and you have your original passphrase you are in business.

As for the installation, I would delete your old installation files, redownload the latest and run it from a console to see what other clues you can get.

I meant go here .. https://kmd.explorer.supernet.org/

Ok thanks I do see it in there...thank you!! :-)
So not sure if by trying to run in Native mode that I messed something up...I usually ran in Lite mode and it initially showed the 6 KMD using the 2.0.25c.exe.

Then when uninstalled and setup the 2.0.26c.exe I ran in Native mode, showing 0. I then uninstalled that and tried to reinstall the 2.0.25c.exe that's when I noticed it doesn't see the .exe file I'm clicking on....oh well.

Maybe there's another way to get your KMD's back into a wallet...from this - https://kmd.explorer.supernet.org/ ?
Not sure if there is.

Keep in mind that in native mode you have to wait for the block chain to down which could take a while before you see your balance. I would keep trying to install Agama and only use it in lite mode if you get it running. In lite mode you should see your balance right away.

Ok will do.
I usually did run it in Lite mode and it did show my 6 KMD coins right away, but this last time it didn't.
Not sure why I can't even install the .exe since it says it can't find the file I just clicked on...
