What to do for the error
“Bad-txns-joinsplit-requirements-not-met”?

Please backup all your private keys, close your wallet, rename Roaming/Zero folder for example to Roaming/Zero1, open wallet again, then import all private keys and wait to sync. More information.

What to do for the error
“Bad-txns-oversize”

Please send a smaller amount. More information.

The limit on sending is due to the combined size of the incoming transactions. Its not a limit on the number of ZER you are trying to send. If you want to send larger quantities you will need to consolidate your ZER into fewer but larger incoming transactions.

If you mine to a pool and get many 100s of small transactions, too many to send in one operation, send several times an amount totaling several dozen of those small transactions , into a different address in your wallet. Then you can send a larger consolidated amount from that address.

This is just the nature of how UTXO-based blockchains, like Bitcoin, work.

How to reindex the wallet?

Run the following command: zerod -reindex

What is an “immature balance”?

An immature balance is a newly created coinbase amount, which is waiting for 720 confirmations (24 hours) from the blockchain to post into your wallet.

How to send new generated coin (MN)?

[ Go to Send coins, select From and To from Shield coinbase, enter the Utxo to shield then click on Shield button ]
