Monero Web Wallet 1.0.8 - where your wallet file goes

Choose a tag to compare

@AMLChecker AMLChecker released this 21 Sep 17:27

Everything from v1.0.7, plus a straight answer to "where do I put my wallet file?" - in the docs
and in the launcher itself.

Where your wallet file goes

Unpack the archive, drop your wallet files - <name> and <name>.keys, for example main and
main.keys - either next to Start.bat or into the wallets\ subfolder, then double-click
Start.bat. The wallet is found automatically and appears on the first screen as Open <name>;
the password is the same one you use in the Monero CLI or GUI.

Files are never moved, renamed or copied: that folder is simply handed to
monero-wallet-rpc --wallet-dir. If your wallets live somewhere else, point MONERO_WALLET_DIR at
that folder instead.

Verified end to end against a real monero-wallet-rpc in both placements: the wallet file is listed
by the API and opens with its password.

Also in this release

  • The launchers now print a hint when the wallet directory contains no *.keys files, naming the
    two places a wallet can go, instead of leaving you at an empty welcome screen.
  • README.md / README.ru.md: a Where your own wallet file goes section in the quick start and
    a fuller FAQ answer, including the MONERO_WALLET_DIR alternative.

About 37 MB compressed (137 MB unpacked), 1040 files. No wallets, keys, credentials or logs are inside.

Running it

1. Unpack monero-web-wallet-1.0.8.zip
2. Put your wallet files next to Start.bat (or in wallets\), or start empty and create a new one
3. Double-click Start.bat - the browser opens http://127.0.0.1:18082/#/welcome

A local monerod on 127.0.0.1:18081 is used when it runs (best for privacy); otherwise the launcher falls back to a public node and says so. Windows Defender sometimes flags the official Monero executables - a false positive; restore the file in Windows Security -> Protection history and add the folder to Exclusions.

Unaudited software - test with small amounts and keep an offline backup of your recovery phrase.
