Topic: Formated disc - recover altcoin wallets (Read 465 times)
This software https://www.cleverfiles.com/partition-data-recovery.html can help you recover data of deleted partition . I personally used it, but it's not cheap! If you're ready to pay $89, give it a try and get your data back
When executing this command:
c:\pywallet-master>pywallet.py --recover --recov_device=E:\backup\wallet.dat --r
ecov_size=500Gio --recov_outputdir=C:\pywallet-master\recover
What am I doing wrong?
The --recov_device argument should be just the drive letter... You need to give it a "device”... Not a file. If you read the stack exchange link from earlier, you'll see the user is a small USB thumb drive, put the wallet file on that and then used pywallet.c:\pywallet-master>pywallet.py --recover --recov_device=E:\backup\wallet.dat --r
ecov_size=500Gio --recov_outputdir=C:\pywallet-master\recover
What am I doing wrong?
And --recov_size should be the size of that device you're scanning.
So if you had a 4gig USB thumb drive, mounted as drive G: you would use:
pywallet.py --recover --recov_device=G: --recov_size=4Gio --recov_outputdir=C:\pywallet-master\recover

Hello,
I would really need help from somebody who experienced same problems. I installed new Windows version on my computer. In setup wizard I formated old partition and installed fresh version of Windows.
After that I used different tools for recovering files.. like EaseUs Recovery and Recuva.. all found wallet.dat files, but when I want to open any altcoin it says: wallet.dat corrupt salvage failed..
Tried also to open *.exe with --salvage option, nothing helps..
Please suggest, how can I recover my wallets.
