Windows Setup

First, connect to your Windows VPS using RDP.

You can visit https://sourceforge.net/projects/simply-copy-bot/files/ to download the copybot files. Make sure to download the latest Windows version.

Next, unzip the file. I find it easiest to unzip the file to C:\copybot

Next, you should open up Command Prompt:

You can also use PowerShell if you prefer:

Navigate to the directory where you saved the copybot. Here, we type "cd" for "change directory". Then a space, then the path to where we saved the copybot, "C:\copybot". Make sure you change this according to where you have saved the bot. Then hit "enter".

cd C:\copybot

Next, type "dir" to show the contents of this folder. Here is what you should see:

dir

Next, type the following:

copy .env.example .env
copy copy_wallets.yaml.example copy_wallets.yaml

This will create copies of the example configuration files that you can modify using your text editor of choice. I recommend using Notepad++, which you can download here: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/

You can then navigate to the directory where you saved the copybot and open .env and copy_wallets.yaml to edit them. For instructions on how to configure these files, please refer to the Configuration Guide.

Once you are done configuring the bot, to run the bot, simply type:

simply-copybot.exe
