    My SSD hard drive is filling up because I forgot to setup the datadir on another drive. What files do I need to move to my other drive before relaunching decred with the --datadir option?

    What OS are you running? dcrd takes up the most space. dcrwallet is minimal.

    /home/your username/.dcrd if you are linux
    C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Dcrd for windows
     
    ClokworkGremlin and skillfulhacking like this.

    This one is running on a windows box. I think I got it figured out, I just moved that Dcrd folder and pointed at the data folder. It seemed to work however it recreated the log files there which I guess isn't a big deal. Thanks for the reply btw.
