If you have no any idea about your password it is highly unlikely to recover your electrum funds.
If you can remember how long your password was and what version of electrum you have it will help to recover your funds.

download btcrecover and extract your wallet script and post a bounty in service section kind a useless effort but someone could probably find your password as electrum only use one hash to encrypt the wallet and bruteforcing it probably much easier than a bitcoin core wallet.

Can you kindly guide me through the steps to extract my wallet script from my backup?

Did you recover the wallet?

https://github.com/gurnec/btcrecover/blob/master/TUTORIAL.md#btcrecover-tutorial

1. download btcrecover to C:\btcrecover-master
2. run python extract-electrum2-partmpk.py wallet.dat
3. it will output Electrum 2.x partial encrypted master private key, iv, and crc in base64
4. run python btcrecover.py --data-extract --passwordlist passwordlist.txt
5. enter Electrum 2.x partial encrypted master private key, iv, and crc in base64 from step 3
6. if password found it will show Password found: 'yourpassword'

if you ask for help from a password recovery service, you just need to send them Electrum 2.x partial encrypted master private key, iv, and crc in base64 from step 3

This is correct, however you need to know what exact version of Electrum you lost the funds.
I can't help you in a step by step way how to access to your script in this board, but if you can contact me at telegram I can help you how to access to your lost funds in a simple way even if you don't remember the password.

Regards,

How long was the randomly generated password? Did you write down your wallet seed words like you were supposed to?

In future when asking questions like these please mention your OS, wallet software and wallet software version if you remember that or the approx. date when you created the wallet if you don't.

Your wallet.dat is not created by bitcoincore. When you open bitcoincore's wallet.dat in notepad, it is different. What is your wallet software?

It is electrum's backup file.

Hello, i have my wallet.dat file. I lost the file with the password to access it as the password was randomly generated. I am unable to do any thing now. I opened the file with notepad ++ and it looks like this.

I tried decrypting it with openssl but it asked for password to decrypt. If anyone can help me gain access to it, he'll be rewarded good amount of the recovered balance.

P.s. i also tried contacting dave from btc recover but he isn't responding back.

You need custom tools to do this properly.

-snip-

Without the password or a hint (do not post any info regarding it), this will be like finding a needle in a haystack.

The (.txt?) file where the passphrase was however, can be recovered depending on "how you've lost it".

Did it get deleted? If so, you might need to use any file recovery software that can restore deleted files or formatted Disks. Some works on Flash drives as well.
Did the flash drive or disk where it was stored got corrupted or damaged? As long as you've created the file on a PC and moved it there, you can just try to recover the deleted copy of it from the PC where it was created with again, any recovery software. If it was directly created to the flash drive, that's a bad news.

Looking for campaign manager? Contact icopress!

If you don't know any details about the password, the tool will also be basically useless.
Also a search on this forum could give you more info. Google for btcrecover site:bitcointalk.org

Edit: this thread could be also useful https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2787015.0;all
