Windows Automatic Update Tutorial
1. Acquire sub-account
In order to earn qus, one must mine to a sub-account. Head over to https://www.apool.io to finish email registration.
Apool will allocate a sub-account automatically under your name. Check out your sub-account name in 'My miners' page.
2. Download the mining software

Configuration file example
Configuration files for mining with GPU and CPU (Recommended mining configuration for all resources)
Configuration files for mining with GPU only
Configuration files for mining with CPU only
Configuration files for mining with GPU and open hybrid mode
Configuration files for mining with CPU and specify the number of CPU thread
Configuration files for Qubic mining idle mode, switch to user-defined third-party mining
You need to download the third-party executable program yourself and put it in the same directory as the configuration file.
The third_cmd parameter must be a mining startup command and cannot be written as a startup script
If the third-party program also runs the apoolminer program, you need to copy apoolminer and rename it to another program name.
Need to copy a file named 'apoolminer' in the same folder and rename it to 'oreminer'
Save the Configuration files after change
