Automated Foreman Upgrades

Foreman has been updated with the following new features and improvements:

New Features

We’ve overhauled our Windows installation process — we present to you the Foreman Windows Agent. This new agent will automatically install, configure, and upgrade Foreman for you, eliminating the need to manually download and unzip Pickaxe every time a new release is published.

You’ll need to migrate from your current Pickaxe:

• Download the latest Windows Agent zip from our GitHub and unzip it.
• Open conf\foreman.txt and enter your Client ID and API key — that information can be found on your dashboard here.
• Run bin\service-start.bat. If it says it’s an unrecognized app, click More info and Run anyway. When it asks if you want to allow it to make changes on your device, select Yes.
• A new Pickaxe will appear here once it’s up and running.
• Move your miners from your old Pickaxe to the new one:

• Grab a 🍺! Now your Foreman applications will automatically upgrade and you’ll have access to our latest features as soon as they’re released!
