RE: Cryptocurrency Mining For Dummies - Bonus Lesson - CPU Mining Part 1

in #mining7 years ago (edited)

Hey gregory-f, didn't know about CPU mining. One question though, can you interrupt the miner when you want to use your PC for other stuff or run different programs? I have a server that I could use to experiment but I want to know if it is possible to turn the mining off when I want to. Or do I have to wait until it reaches a certain cycle?

Excellent question! You can stop mining any time you want just by closing the mining window. Then when you're ready to start mining again, just click on the program/batch file to restart the miner. Since all the configuration information is saved, it's just one click.
