How to move the syncronised blockchain DB for Bytecoin wallet.

(Pic from https://steem.ly/m8)

Sup Steemit,

This guide is for the Bytecoin wallet, on windows OS. It may also be useful for other nodes too.

So, I synced up the BCN blockchain. (around 50GB)

I was given no choice on where it was going to put the directory, I let it fully sync and It

filled my main hardrive, So, it needed to be moved.

Make sure to backup your wallet, ect.

1* Delete or move "bytecoin" folder in "C:\Users%user_name%\AppData\Roaming".

2* Open cmd and enter this command: MkLink /J "C:\Users%user_name%\AppData\Roaming\bytecoin" "NEW_LOCATION_PATH"

-to open cmd, press windows key or start on the taskbar and type cmd.

Example, I want to move to H:\bytecoin.

My command is MkLink /J "C:\Users\mrbong\AppData\Roaming\bytecoin" "H:\bytecoin".

3* Check in "C:\Users%user_name%\AppData\Roaming\bytecoin". you should see the "bytecoin" folder (icon same as shortcut), if so it means it worked, when you open this folder, it will open folder in "NEW_LOCATION_PATH"

4* Move all data from old folder to new folder.

5* Run Bytecoin wallet app. Fingers crossed, you should be good.
