Try installing the 2013 C++ Redistributable first
Thanks!
Do you know what windows OS are supported?
I cannot say for sure, but I imagine Windows 7 and above.
Yeah I suppose!
Just FYI I tried in windows 2008 and I tried to run " Navigate into the newly created "steem-win-x64-011" folder and double click "steemd.exe"
It did not work.
Cheers!
Server 2008 must be missing a dependency that steemd.exe requires. I will look into this and let you know if I find anything.
Also, try creating a .bat file with a pause at the end to see if you get any errors.
Try installing the Visual C++ Redistributable Packages 2013 and see if that helps. Is your Windows fully up to date via Windows Update?
I did but no !
No worries I will try on windows 10
Ok new to mining steem, but not new to mining other coins. Do i need a wallet on my local machine to mine on windows?
There is currently only a command line wallet available and it is part of the download.
Thanks!
Good!
