cpu is at high usage but it is not updating on nanopool that any shares have been mined

Open wpask2 opened this issue 2 years ago • 44 comments

first 5 minutes of testing and got around 5 shares, and so then i leave it running for almost two hours now and it shows that it is inactive when on my test pc aka my rdp it shows the high usage under file explorer, almost as if its mining, but on nanopool it shows that the worker is inactive. help?

Can you run the checker and post what it returns? If it's using CPU then it's mining (since otherwise it can't use the CPU) so the shares should appear on the pool. Sometimes pools are slow to update their statistics but eventually things should appear.

where is the checker at?

wpask2 avatar Feb 24 '22 18:02 wpask2

Oh, you should use my new miner: https://github.com/UnamSanctam/SilentCryptoMiner, when you compile that a checker will get complied together with the miner that you can use to test/check.

ok so i used the new one and i turned off stealth but still it does not show that explorer.exe is using up alot of usage and my cpu is at like less than 10% now and doesnt appear to be mining anything, but when i run the checker it says watchdog running: yes and under miners it says nothing

Then it's not running, post your settings here. You can press "Save" on the "Main" tab and then zip it and post that file here which is the easiest or you can screenshot the builder.

You might have to change the "Startup" tabs "Filename" to something other than Microsoft since some anticheats block that folder.

ok i did as you said and changed the name to 64os.exe and when i run the checker it says it works now

wpask2 avatar Feb 24 '22 18:02 wpask2

but my question is, if i upload the checker file alone to mega and download it on my real pc and run it, will it still check for me?

wpask2 avatar Feb 24 '22 18:02 wpask2

Yes will check for the miner (that you built) on any computer you send it to.

UnamSanctam avatar Feb 24 '22 18:02 UnamSanctam

alright

wpask2 avatar Feb 24 '22 18:02 wpask2

one last question.... i notice your name is unam sanctam

wpask2 avatar Feb 24 '22 18:02 wpask2

are you of south korean heritage by chance

wpask2 avatar Feb 24 '22 18:02 wpask2

Haha no I'm Swedish.

UnamSanctam avatar Feb 24 '22 18:02 UnamSanctam

ah ok lol

wpask2 avatar Feb 24 '22 19:02 wpask2

also when i ended the nslookup in task manager which is what i assume the miner used to cloak itself, after i ended it, it did not start up again

wpask2 avatar Feb 24 '22 19:02 wpask2

The program it injects into depends on what you choose, but the watchdog will start it up again after about 3 minutes of being closed so that it won't be too fast.

another question is, the uninstall and checker and the miner starter all disappeared from the directory i had it in and was changed to a prefetch file for some reason, how do i uninstall it without the uninstaller?

wpask2 avatar Feb 26 '22 05:02 wpask2

You can uninstall it manually https://github.com/UnamSanctam/SilentXMRMiner/wiki#how-do-i-remove-the-miner.

ok also there is another issue, i used your unam downloader to bind a program setup and the my xmr stub made with your updated crypto miner, however it does not seem to work. when i run the stub by itself and check it with the checker it says it is running, but when i run the binded file it does not work.

wpask2 avatar Mar 05 '22 07:03 wpask2

Is the download link you entered into the downloader correct? Does it work if you use the Unam Binder (less can go wrong with the binder)?

UnamSanctam avatar Mar 05 '22 07:03 UnamSanctam

i have not tried unam binder yet, but let me do that.

wpask2 avatar Mar 05 '22 07:03 wpask2

i have updated the link, but it still says "this program may of not have been installed correctly" when running the binded file. let me see if the checker works though

wpask2 avatar Mar 05 '22 07:03 wpask2

Ok its picking it up now

wpask2 avatar Mar 05 '22 07:03 wpask2

Ok because if it says "this program may of not have been installed correctly" then you've forgotten .exe after the filename when binding it.

UnamSanctam avatar Mar 05 '22 07:03 UnamSanctam

image do have .exe on both

wpask2 avatar Mar 05 '22 07:03 wpask2

ok so i did some testing and it does get flagged by windows defender. even when added to windows defender exclusions. anyway to fix?

wpask2 avatar Mar 05 '22 17:03 wpask2

Are you running it as administrator? It can't add exclusions without that (which is what the shield means).

UnamSanctam avatar Mar 06 '22 13:03 UnamSanctam

yes so i have updated it and checked "run as administrator" and it still flags it. also when i download it onto my rdp it automatically flags it aswell.

wpask2 avatar Mar 07 '22 04:03 wpask2

Do you mean that the bound file (that the binder generated) gets detected or that some file (like the miner that gets extracted) gets detected after running the bound file?

UnamSanctam avatar Mar 07 '22 04:03 UnamSanctam

the bound file

wpask2 avatar Mar 07 '22 04:03 wpask2

i compiled it and uploaded it and when i downloaded it, it gets flagged with this image
