so i've been stuck at this for a week now!!
...
trying to install sha256 but don't know how!
don't know what else i should download/ do!!
help please???
Thank you all.
Maybe try using the .exe installer for Pywallet... as per the instructions here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/pywallet-22-manage-your-wallet-update-required-34028Installation:
Linux/OSX: See README file
Windows:
Download https[Suspicious link removed] (SHA256: 645a4d092733ad6685de730a38b210c6594e44a15690a87a231859477deca316)
Run it
Click about a thousand times on Yes/Next/I Agree/OK
Go to the directory where you extracted it and run pywallet.bathttp://localhost:8989NOTE: do not bother with the .bat file and using the web interface... it's no good for what you want.
That should install all the bits and pieces that you need to have pywallet.py installed somewhere on your system... you should then be able to use "python pywallet.py [blah blah blah]" as required. I have successfully used this installer on Windows 10 to setup pywallet.
Note, the installer is in French... so here are some screenshots with notes:
You should see a cmd window like this popup:
Then you should see WGET start:
Now you can click "Next", "Next", "Next".... "Install", then "Finish". You'll see a bunch more commands in the commandline box and then it should close.
Now open the commandline to the install directory that you put in Step 1. above and run "install.bat"... you'll see a bunch of commandsline execute and then you will see pywallet.py in the "dir" listing:
Following that, you should be able to run pywallet.py... you can safely ignore the warning about pycrypto and libssl...
If you are still getting errors about modules/libraries OTHER than pycrypto or libssl, then there is a good chance that you have not installed Python 2.7 correctly (or perhaps your %PATH% is not set correctly).
Funny i installed this on Monday:

exactly what u said happened, I tried to open port 8989 (didn't know how) on internet explorer but didn't work!!
tried pip install pywallet and the same error msg.!
ran it again today and opened port 8989 on chrome and voila, it's on: pywallet 2.2
now i just have to learn how to use it, change search directories to external drives to find deleted or hidden wallets, keys, passwords, locations........
thank you very much.
