Resync Wallet Button #2005
Comments
Yeah, this makes sense. But where to put the button, and how does the user know that he needs to resync? Is this maybe more of a peer support feature - so that one can easily say "Click on Wallet resync and it should be fixed" without explaining the details. That would already help a lot. And if maybe the wallet can automatically detect that something is wrong, and then give a message that the user should resync, that might be even better! |
I was thinking that the button would be in the wallet info page, wallet manager, or the top toolbar. |
Probably |
Would still be useful. |
AFAIK everyone is against this because we should rather fix the bug the resync to be needed. |
In many cases the users wallet is not properly synced and the balance or the status of their transactions is wrong and a resync of the wallet is the only solution. #10616 This is definitely a useful feature to have. |
Furthermore, after turbosync we will have 2 different heights, it will be even more confusing for the user. |
|
A coinjoin transaction being replaced and confirmed leads to the wallet balance being incorrect. This should be prioritized to simplify the recovery process for users whose wallets become broken due to this unavoidable circumstance. |
This is a good to have for the v2.0.7 release. |
ACK |
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It seems for some wallet errors the best way is to have the wallet resync. Currently the user needs to delete some files to do this, this generally a bad way to handle this as the user could accidentally delete something they are not supposed to.
Describe the solution you'd like
A button that resyncs wallet, probably by deleting the necessary files for the user.
Describe alternatives you've considered
The button could also mark as "Needs to Resync" and on startup do a resync without needing to delete the blocks and filters it already has downloaded.
