Help! I Can't Access the Bisq Settings Screen
If you can't open Bisq to access the Settings section, you can manually delete the btc_mainnet/wallet/bisq.spvchain from your data directory.
The default data directory locations can be found here. You will then need to manually restart Bisq twice to complete the resync.
