Basically I downloaded the newest version of geth, synced it then tried to open the wallet. The wallet then connects to a remote node instead of the local node; or I get the blue circling arrow; or the waiting on block error message.

tried to start new wallet with geth 1.8.20 ..... solution It just does not work with 1.8.20 had to delete chain-state and restart from beginning with geth1.8.16
