bitcoincore gui – I want to rescan… not reindex using latest version 28 bitcoin core qt.

Re-indexing is a node/blockchain operation. Rebuild the block index and re-verify all transactions on the blockchain. This can be done in Bitcoin Core (including version 28.0) using: -reindex Command line options. Depending on your computer’s specifications, this may take anywhere from a few hours to several days.

Rescanning is a wallet operation. We review all blockchain transactions again to ensure they are relevant to your wallet. This can be done in Bitcoin Core (including version 28.0) using: rescanblockchain RPC commands (in the GUI you can use the debug console to provide RPC commands) -rescan Command line options have been removed in 23.0: https://bitcoincore.org/en/releases/23.0/
