    <!-- Describe the issue -->

    I've already install followed by the instruction Then the book says: "Run bitcoind by typing bitcoind to the terminal" But the problem is, I cannot find where the "bitcoind" stored, i've try to cd src, and find something like "bitcoind.exe" ,"bitcoind.cpp"...... But when I run "bitcoind.exe", the terminal says an error: "Invalid argument" So how can i find the "real bitcoind" that mentioned by the instruction, how to execute it ? Another problem : when i run make check, these errors appear image HOW TO FIX IT :( :(, help me please

    Looks like you are confusing windows/ubuntu instructions and terminals. Use WSL terminal only to build and move wallet to /mnt/c/ Files should now appear in windows file explorer C:\ where you can use it like any other windows app.

    I think that i misunderstood, can you tell me how to find and run the "bitcoind" specifically, the book said: image and How to fix the FAIL when i run make check, thank you so much

    bitcoind.exe is the command line only version which is in bitcoin/src. You probably want the gui wallet, bitcoin-qt.exe which is in bitcoin/src/qt. After you run make there's no need for other commands in general use except strip src/bitcoind.exe strip src/bitcoin-cli.exe strip src/qt/bitcoin-qt.exe if you want smaller executable files.

    You can find instructions for building bitcoind on windows here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-windows.md The issue tracker on GitHub is for issues with the code rather than help requests, please ask your question somewhere like https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com or similar :)
