I see that only windows 11 is listed, but is it possible to run (mine) on windows 10 as well? |
As long as you can install Ubuntu LTS from the Microsoft Store you should be able to use the guide. |

Thanks for the reply. I'll give it a try. |

Windows 11 Coreminer Setup Instructions and Guide for Beginners. Open Ubuntu LTS 22.04 version To Create a new folder put in the command: Change directory: Download the coreminer software.

If you want to change the coreminer settings you have to make changes in the pool.cfg file in the coreminer-v01960 folder. You can open it with e.g. 'nano pool.cfg'. To save it hit Ctrl+X, Y and then Enter.

Hi,
whether you haven't installed the right UBUNtu LTS 22.04 version or you
just haven't used the right command which is:
Install unzip:
sudo apt-get install unzip
Unzip coreminer-linux-x86_64.zip:
unzip coreminer-linux-x86_64.zip
Or for coreminer-linux-arm64.zip:
unzip coreminer-linux-arm64.zip
let me know if that helped and works now for you!?

Windows Coreminer Setup Instructions and Guide for Beginners
Open the Microsoft Store and search for Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS and install it. It is a Virtual Machine and Command Line Interface (CLI) of the operating system Ubuntu (Linux) which you'll need to get the miner running. Open the virtual machine Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS and wait a few seconds. Now you have to enter a new UNIX username. Just use only lowercase letters and it will work (e.g. coreminer). Then type in a password and you are ready to go.
You're not in a Graphical User Interface (GUI) anymore and you control the CLI with commands. To see in which directory you are currently in type in
laorls. If nothing is shown there is no folder yet in the current directory. Every command I am showing in this guide is one line even though it could happen that it is shown in two lines here on GitHub.Create a new folder:
mkdir coreminerChange directory:
cd coreminerDownload the Coreminer software. The current version used in this guide is v0.19.80.
For a x86_64 CPU it's:
wget -P ./ "https://github.com/catchthatrabbit/coreminer/releases/download/v0.19.80/coreminer-linux-x86_64.tar.gz"For an ARM CPU it's:
wget -P ./ "https://github.com/catchthatrabbit/coreminer/releases/download/v0.19.80/coreminer-linux-arm64.tar.gz"Extract coreminer-linux-x86_64.tar.gz:
tar -xf coreminer-linux-x86_64.tar.gzOr for coreminer-linux-arm64.tar.gz:
tar -xf coreminer-linux-arm64.tar.gzChange directory:
cd coreappInstall bc:
sudo apt-get install bcStart the Coreminer:
bash mine.shFor the Core Coin (XCB) Wallet go to: Wallet Generator
To go outside of a folder you have to use:
cd ..You can stop the miner with 2x Ctrl+C. Every time you restart Ubuntu 22.04.2 CLI you just have to change directory
cd coreminer/coreapp/and start the Coreminerbash mine.sh. Also, you can combine them in one commandcd coreminer/coreapp/ && bash mine.sh.If you want to change the Coreminer settings you have to make changes in the pool.cfg file in the Coreminer folder. You can open it with e.g.
nano pool.cfg. To save it hit Ctrl+X, Y, and then Enter. Alternatively, you can also removerm pool.cfgthe pool.cfg file and start the Coreminer again.If there is a new version of the Coreminer (Releases) navigate outside of the coreminer folder and remove it with
rm -r coreminer. Then repeat this guide but change the version number on step 5 to the newer version or copy the link and paste it between the quotation marks to replace the download link. Use the newer versions at your own risk because you might need to fix some things to make them work.You don't have to type in every command twice. Just use the arrow keys up and down on your keyboard to navigate through the history of your previously used commands.
To make a software update for the virtual machine use this command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y.All reactions
