Procedure using Windows 10 as an example

open directory C:\Users\<username>\.defi
open file defi.conf in text editor
add line: datadir=<storage directory blockchain data> (example: datadir=D:\defichain) (Important: The line has to be added before the Main Chapter)
Example:

`rpcauth=something` `rpcuser=something` `rpcpassword=something` `rpcbind=127.0.0.1` `rpcport=8555` `datadir=D:\defichain` `[main]` `wallet=Wallet.dat`

Save file and start wallet
The app now recreates the blockchain folders in the datadir and will start with a complete download of the whole blockchain. (16.3.2021 ca. 25GB)

The app 2.3.1 does not work correctly with a moved directory.
