    Please indicate that the phrases and passwords when creating a purse does not appear in the window . I thought that the keyboard is not working . I write them in a text document and copy .

    Say you get your guide up and running. What do you have to change when the mainnet will be released?
    Of do you have to delete the whole thing and remake it for mainnnet?

    Nice question, I have been thinking it for a while too.I think we will have to delete the APPDATA and redo again with the seed that we got during AIRDROP to create a new wallet. Anyways, I will ask this question on the irc #decred channel and hopefully post the answer here

    I can not go through step 6, consistently produces an error: [ERR] DCRW: invalid passphrase for master public key

    What is a master key? At some stage the password for it?

    I think you did the same as i did. You forgot and didnt create an extra passphrase.
    Try entering this:

    dcrwallet -u user -P pass --dcrdusername=user --dcrdpassword=pass /noclienttls /noservertls

    (so without the --walletpass publicpassphrase part)

    Let me know if it works please ;)

    Your master public key is the public passphrase that you created when the Daemon asked if you wanted to add an additional layer of encryption.. If you selected yes, you would have created a private passkey and a public pass key. Use the syntax --walletpass publicpassphrase. If you selected no leave out --walletpass publicpassphrase

    Here's how it looked:
    reate
    Enter the private passphrase for your new wallet:
    Confirm passphrase:
    Do you want to add an additional layer of encryption for public data? (n/no/y/ye
    s) [no]: y
    Enter the public passphrase for your new wallet:
    Confirm passphrase:
    NOTE: Use the --walletpass option to configure your public passphrase.
    Do you have an existing wallet seed you want to use? (n/no/y/yes) [no]: n
    Your wallet generation seed is:

    You have probably created a wallet already. If you completed the step to create wallet ie you have your seed then you are fine, you don't need to create a new wallet again. If you just want another address then use getnewaddress command.
