(Asked by: username_0 on 2020-11-04)

I have accidentally made a transaction with a very low fee (5 sat/byte) and I doubt that it will be confirmed any time soon.
*Replace-By-Fee* is not available since my transaction has no change.
*Abandon the transaction* option is also not available.
How can I change the `-mempoolexpiry` setting in my BitcoinCore (0.20.1), which I run on Windows 10, so that I don't need to wait for 2 weeks for the transaction to be automatically dropped out of the mempool?
