Receiving error:

Couldn't connect to node? See the logs for more: node type: geth network: main Platform win32 (x64)

This occurred after updating to 0.9.3.

Log file: INFO [12-05|16:55:11] Starting peer-to-peer node instance=Geth/v1.6.5-stable-cf87713d/windows-amd64/go1.8.3 INFO [12-05|16:55:11] Allocated cache and file handles database=C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Ethereum\geth\chaindata cache=1024 handles=1024

Version: `0.9.3`
OS & Version: windows 10 x64
Node version: I've installed 1.8.3, 1.7.2, 1.7.3 (manually installed these after initial error hoping it resolve, it didn't)
Number of blocks synchronized: 0

I have private key, is there any way to for me to get my ETH into another wallet? It's currently in the blockchain and has not been synced with my local wallet yet. Can I completely uninstall Ethereum Wallet/geth and start over and still recover the ETH?

I have same problem on Windows10 64bit. I have installed & reinstalled many times, but still getting similar error on installation. I was surprised that I stuck with this difficulties on Zenbook modern notebook

^ it says you are running geth 1.6.5

I ran into this issue, and it was due to running an older version of wallet / geth. Have you tried re-installing wallet / geth & re-syncing? Try running geth before opening wallet software to ensure 1.7.3 is running as node

blockchainicogroup commented 6 years ago

I tried reinstalling geth & wallet, tried in different variations. Besides, when I run geth ->it is closing ( I can see only WARN message typing in and then console closes)

I have the similar issue and eventually found the firewall blocked the Geth. So simply disable the firewall see it the connection is restored. Don't need to uninstall anything or restart the computer if no changes have been made.

Removing all the files from C:\Users\Your name\AppData\Roaming\Ethereum\geth\chaindata and/or from C:\Users\Your name\AppData\Roaming\Ethereum\geth\lightchaindata and re-downloading it again solved my problem.
