To install simply exit PeerHash, restart and download the new miner and it will automatically be extracted into the v6.12.2 directory. Mining will then start automatically.
Note well:
- for maximum CPU performance start PeerHash in Administrator mode
- enable lock pages in memory in Window’s settings
- set an anti-virus/malware exception for the PeerHash install directory/location. It is common for Windows Defender and other anti-virus to make a false-positive detection’s and delete/quarantine XMRIG.exe or PeerHash.exe unnecessarily – you should be only mining a dedicated mining rig
- read the mining best practice guide https://peerhash.com/mining-best-practice/
