Title: Please Help!! Bitcoin Wallet Block Download frozen!!!
Post by: DiMensionalTraveler on July 30, 2012, 02:31 pm

For 5 days now my block download has been frozen at 57%. How can I fix this!? I've tried uninstalling the program and restarting it, but it's still stuck at 57%.

I had a similar problem when I upgraded the client before the whole block chain was downloaded. It has been a while so you may want to do a bit of googling as well, but I am pretty sure I fixed things by launching the client with the "-rescan" option.

use electrum or any other thin client and say bye bye to downloading the blockchain

For once Shannon and I are in agreement! :-)
