I haven't done that on windows, but can you try something like this (after installing python/pip):

> pip install leveldb
(cd into the .ipfs directory in your home dir)
> python
>>> import leveldb
>>> leveldb.RepairDB('./datastore')
>>> exit()

Alternatively, try building/installing the latest master. We now automatically recover corrupted leveldb databases.

Are there a solution for Windows? Just try building/installing from master?

That or the python method (that should also work on windows but requires python).

You can get binaries from ci - https://ci.ipfs.team/job/IPFS/job/go-ipfs/job/master/ (for windows you'll need to rename ipfs to ipfs.exe)

I deleted the files and just started again the daemon. It's work.
