<d​rghost:matrix.org> hey, kind of weird noob question here but I am running monero-wallet-gui using default settings and I noticed that slightly older transactions are being pruned... how do I turn this off?

<d​rghost:matrix.org> e.g. if I call monerod RPC /get_transactions on a recent tx it gives me the tx 'as_hex' but if I call a 3 week old transaction it only gives me pruned_as_hex and I can't get the full transaction as_hex

Delete chain, run monerod again without --prune-blockchain, let it sync.

<d​rghost:matrix.org> thanks

Unless the GUI asks for pruned data in the first place. In that case... lemme check...

set the prune field to false in get_transactions.

<d​rghost:matrix.org> matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/…matrix.org/ldZXUkkrBUCeigyxlCjFMFlD

It defaults to false though.

If your chain file is about 150-200 GB, it's not pruned. If it's < 100 GB, it's pruned. Assuming it's fully synced.

<d​rghost:matrix.org> screenshot to illustrate. I am fairly certain I never ran anything with prune-blockchain and I have unpruned recent txs. Yea it's like 70 GB

Maybe the GUI sets this automatically.

it asks you during initial setup if you want to prune

<d​rghost:matrix.org> ah, no idea what I did years ago. Will just redownload. Thank you ser
