Performing a re-scan of the blockchain

This guide is a walktrough on how to perform a re-scan of the blockchain (this guide can be used for both xfuel and xtrabytes). This should be done when you've imported a private key and your balance doesn't match that of what the block explorer is showing. You can check your wallet address on the block explorer (Xtrabytes or Xfuel) to see if there is a mismatch in balances.

As with all guides we always recommend that you have a fresh backup of your wallet.dat and/or private key.

Windows

1. Close down the current running instance of the wallet

2. Load command prompt

3. Navigate to the folder where your xtrabytes/xfuel wallet is stored. (For this example I have used C:\Xtrabytes)

4. Run the executable file with the following switch -rescan

5. Once you've ran this command the wallet will load and the re-scanning process will begin. This could take a while

After the rescan has completed your balance should now match. If you are still having issue please raise a support ticket here.
