added note about restore and added Restore guide
== Wallet ==
'''Symptoms:'''
=== Restore wallet ===
==== Quick restore guide ====
Same steps as [[#Does not sync|Does not sync]] just put back our backup wallet.dat instead.
==== Full restore guide ====
This guide assumes we are starting fresh on a new computer.
* Start by installing Raven-QT wallet follow [[Best_practices#General_wallet_guide|General wallet guide]] if needed, skip encrypt and backup for now.
* Once we have Raven-qt running and fully synced, we quit raven-qt and wait for it to fully exit.
* Open our Data folder the default location is shown below this guide.
* Move the wallet.dat that is already inside our Data folder (Raven) folder to another location ie. desktop, and put our backup wallet.dat here instead. If we used a memorable name for our backup wallet.dat we need to rename it back to wallet.dat now.
*Launch Raven-qt and we should see our funds available.
Windows: %AppData%/Roaming/Raven
Mac: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Raven
Linux: ~/.raven
Note that " ~/ " is the home folder for linux and mac, not " / " root.
=== Does not sync ===
===Transaction stuck ===
Try deleting the downloaded blockchain, and resync, we can find the default location here: Windows: %AppData%/Roaming/Raven Mac: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Raven Linux: ~/.raven
*'''Extra amount of rvn went missing when I transferred coins out of the wallet'''.
