How do I set the miner up?

[nochill-1]

Sorry if that seems like a joke or something but Im actually clueless.
Yes I followed every guide but the issue starts by downloading the miner.
What file should I download?
I downloaded the source code but that doesnt seem to be right?
I downloaded ccminer.exe but when I try to open it, it closes shortly after?

Some instructions would be appreciated for someone who has never done this. The readme is hard to understand and doesnt make any sense from my perspective. btw I mined before with your software however I didnt set that up myself back then. much love

The issue is more likely related to your anti-virus, which might remove the binary... the doc is fine, if you already used ccminer, it works the exact same way as the others.
detailed instruction can be found in the release.

Anti-virus has been disabled beforehand though. Im looking through /releases but there are no instructions :/

what is there in your command line or cmd file ? (the easiest is to go to the forum of the coin, you'll get many help) github issue are for bug report.

@nochill-1 Apparently you are trying to open exe file directly and run it. What you need to do is create a .bat file and call exe file along with your wallet address and pool details etc. and then run that .bat file using command line with administrator priviledge.

command will be something like:

ccminer.exe -a mtp -o stratum+tcp://firo.f2pool.com:5780 -u wallet_address.worker-name -p password
