Technical Support / Proper way to update software
« on: November 04, 2013, 06:44:19 PM »
What is the proper way to update the GoldCoin wallet?
I backed-up my wallet even though I didn't have any GLD, then uninstalled the older software and installed latest release (v0.7.1.4-gcf3abdf39d-beta). When I opened the new wallet I didn't see any way to import my old wallet.
I was awaiting the free GLD for new members and my concern was, my wallet address would change. When I opened my wallet some time later, 100 GLD had made it and my address appeared the same. It appears that the process I used work, but I wanted to know if I should be updating a different way.
