Just wondering if anyone here is a youtuber and if they plan on making any new tutorials updated for the new solo mining fork? I am a TOTAL NOOB to mining and i'm sure there are many others like me who would like to mine. I followed this guide https://forum.wownero.com/t/how-to-solo-mine/551 and messed something up somewhere because I got an error msg saying "not mining". Did get the daemon up and running though so thats good.

1. make sure you have downloaded the latest version (v0.10) https://git.wownero.com/wownero/wownero/releases/tag/v0.10.0.0

2. get your wallet's address and secret spend key

3. open command prompt, change directories to location of wownero files

4. enter command: `wownerod.exe --start-mining YOUR-ADDRESS --spendkey SECRET-SPENDKEY --mining-threads NUMBER`
5. type `status` to check your hash rate and network status

Sorry to bother you with this. I followed your directions as best I could. Also followed the directions in "HOW TO SOLO MINE" ........ BUT ... I keep getting this msg in the Command Prompt: "unknown command" C:Users\Name\Downloads\Wownero"
Use "help" to list all commands and their usage.

I am dragging the unextracted file into the command prompt just as the HOW TO SOLO MINE guide says. Is that what you mean when you say: "open command prompt, change directories to location of wownero files" ?

It says I am now synced to the network. and I may now start wownero-wallet-cli.

So its great im synced, but just can't activate mining.

As I said im a TOTAL NOOB, never even mined before but just got a custom computer to get started. Thanks for your patience and assistance.

Once you are synced run the command `wownerod.exe --start-mining Your-wallet-address-here --spend-key your-spend-key-here --threads your-desired threads-here`

FYI... I've not run the Windows version and am going of what I know from running wownerod on Linux so double check with the how to guide to make sure the command is correct.
