Windows 10 Setup

Hyper-V is a requirement for Docker Desktop. Hyper-V requires:

• Windows 10 Enterprise, Professional, or Education.
• 64bit CPU with Second Level Address Translation (SLAT)
• CPU support for VM Monitor Mode Extension (VT-c)
• 4GB RAM (minimum)
• Virtualization Technology enabled (BIOS)

Windows 10 Home can be upgraded to Windows 10 Pro. Settings > Update & Security > Activation

Getting Started

Run Windows PowerShell as Administrator.

Press Windows+X > Windows PowerShell (Admin)

In the following sections; text in command boxes should be pasted into PowerShell (Admin). Right click to paste clipboard, hit Enter.

• Enable Hyper-V, then reboot:

  • Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V -All

VirtualBox won't work with Hyper-V enabled. You can toggle Hyper-V, using Hyper-V Switch by Yves Goergen.

Prepare Windows 10

Download vs-w713 GitHub repository:

• PowerShell defaults to TLS 1.0 (cryptographically weak) - GitHub requires TLS 1.2:

  • [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

• Pull repository:

  • Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://github.com/mi1b/vs-w713/archive/master.zip" -OutFile "\vs-w713.zip"

• Extract repository:

  • Expand-Archive -LiteralPath \vs-w713.zip -DestinationPath \

Setup Docker Desktop

• Sign up for a Docker Hub account.
• Download and install Docker Desktop.

During installation choose Linux containers. Docker will start automatically and is running when this icon appears in the notification area.

• Right click on the whale icon > Settings > Shared Drives > Tick C (or whichever drive letter you installed Windows on).

• As Docker needs to mount files, it requires access to the Windows filesystem. Docker will ask for credentials; use your normal Windows password.

• Run Windows PowerShell (Admin)

• Check you're connected to Docker:

  • docker version

• Check Docker can pull and run images:

  • docker run hello-world

Build the Container

• Navigate to work directory:

  • cd \vs-w713-master\vs-w713

• Build container images from Dockerfile context:

  • docker build -t my/wallet713 .

Building the container images will take 10-15 minutes on a fast PC. When the container is successfully built, you'll receive a SECURITY WARNING. Windows' filesystem can't mark a file as executable. As you're building a Linux container in a Windows client, all files are marked executable by default (don't worry, just do it).

Run the Container (Opens Wallet713)

• Run the container and open Wallet713:

  • docker run --rm --name wallet713 -ti -v $PWD/data:/root/.wallet713 my/wallet713 wallet713

• Make a new wallet:

  • init

• Write down your recovery phrase and stash it somewhere safe.

• Lists available Wallet713 commands:

  • -h

• Close Wallet713 and the container:

  • exit

• If anything weird happens (not saying it will) you can remove the container:

  • docker rm -f wallet713

• To start Wallet713 again, navigate to the work directory and run the container:

  • cd \vs-w713-master\vs-w713
  • docker run --rm --name wallet713 -ti -v $PWD/data:/root/.wallet713 my/wallet713 wallet713

Whatever happens to the container doesn't matter. You can delete the container, all the images, and uninstall Docker. Your Wallet713 data remains in the \vs-w713-master\vs-w713\data folder and is safe.
