The wallet file of my bitcoin wallet is stored in the form of text.
In 2013, I copied and pasted the secretkey in the wallet file into a newly-built word document, and then deleted the secretkey in the original wallet file.
A few years later, when I copied and pasted the secretkey into wallet.txt again, the wallet file was unusable and destroyed. My wallet file contains the following information:
partner:xxxxxxx
secretkey:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Excuse me, masters, how can I retrieve Bitcoin by program or other means?
