Why doesn't the "open configuration file" in Bitcoin Core open when I click on it?

Settings -> Options -> Main, open configuration file at bottom left -> Configuration options. It asks me to continue or cancel, but the file does not open.

ubuntu Bitcoin core ver. 24.0.1

The file doesn't exist until you create it, for example by using the menu to make and save a change to the settings

  • 'Open Configuration File' option in GUI creates a blank bitcoin.conf file if it doesnt exist and open it.

  • Thanks for the answer. Do I need to set this up at the beginning? Or is the default fine if there is no special need?

  • @Luke Do you get any error when you click on "continue"?
