HOW TO INSTALL ELECTRUM AND GET IT WORKING WITH LEDGER

For Windows, download binaries of Electrum here. Get the "-setup.exe" version. Windows Defender may complain. You'll have to add an exception and tell it to run anyway.

Download and install WinPython

After you install that, open a terminal window and do:

 cd \Users\USERNAME\Downloads\WPy-3670/scripts

and then

pip install ledgerblue

Download the app.hex app file for Ravencoin. Right click the file and choose to save. Save it to the same folder that you're in right now - \Users\USERNAME\Downloads\WPy-3670/scripts

Plug in and unlock your Ledger and do

python -m ledgerblue.loadApp --appFlags 0x40 --apdu --tlv --targetId 0x31100003 --delete --fileName app.hex --appName "Ravencoin" --appVersion 1.3.2 --dataSize 0x00000000 --icon 0100000000ffffff00ffffffffffff1ffc0ff80fe107c0078003f003f807f81ffc3ffcfffcffffffff

Follow the prompts on your hardware Ledger to allow the installation. Once it's done, you should see a Ravencoin app in the list of apps on the Ledger. Open Ravencoin on the Ledger.

Now back on your Windows computer, you will see an Electrum-RVN icon on your deskop. Open the program up and go through the initial setup steps. When you get to the part where you can "Choose a hardware wallet" pick that option and go from there. If it can't see the Ledger, make sure you have your Ravencoin app running on it. You can accept the defaults for everything else, once it sees the Ledger.

Your coins are safe on your Ledger. You can always recover them from another Electrum instance by simply using the seed words from your Ledger.
