I did not get into similar situations, try to write in support, maybe they can help with this, although it will be very difficult to prove that this is your wallet.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to recover your private key, it's already told you 'private', nobody have backup, except you, hope your wallet don't have too much assets, so go to create a new address, keep your private key in safe place, recommend create a several backup, you must take care your assets if not nobody can help you

I am sorry to hear about your loss. Unfortunately no,  private key is the only way to access your ETH wallet in myetherwallet. Unless you have the keystore file and remember your password to it.

you should be careful with the private key because if you forget to save and you lose it will be difficult to restore, so you should be able to make this experience a lesson to be more careful

I have lost my etherium wallet private key.Could any one know how to recover my private key.
MyEtherWallet is not a "web wallet". You do not create an account or give MEW your ETH or tokens to hold onto. MEW is simply an interface that allows you to interact with the Ethereum blockchain.

For security & privacy reasons, no sensitive data is saved, stored, or transmitted when you use MyEtherWallet. They, like anybody else, only have access to the information that is publicly available on the blockchain.

Unfortunately, that means they cannot:

Recover your private key
Access you account
Recover or reset your password
Reverse or cancel transactions
Recover your account
Send your ETH or Tokens from one address to another
There may be a chance that you saved it without realizing it. So, just in case:

Do a full search of your computer for “UTC-“ and see if the private key shows up.
Do a full search of your computer for your address without the 0x at the beginning.
If you know when you created it, look through all files during that time period for any documents that may hold your key or screenshots.
Generate a new wallet via https://www.myetherwallet.com/#generate-wallet and take a look and the different options you may have downloaded or saved. Sometimes that can jog your memory.
In the future, it may be prudent to print out a paper version of your wallet and keep it in multiple physical locations.

I'm really sorry.

Very informative, I also have ever read about this thing when creating the MEW at first. i think that if we lost our private key, it is so sad because it means that we cannot restore it, isn't it? But, can we use the keystore?

If you haven't lost the "UTC-" extension file that the system created when you first registered to the system, and you have saved it safely, you may have a chance to recover your Etherereum Wallet Account.

Once you lost your private key it wouldn't be restored. And it very difficult for someone to lost his/her private key because it only knew to them not anybody else

find the file you've downloaded when creating the wallet in MeW.
you can use this file to access to your wallet and recover your funds.

Your private key can not be restored, it's the essence of the cryptocurrency. Nothing can be done without a password.

That's one of the important ones as well as the file should not have it because you do not have to recover your wallet better to make your fingernail's back up file and install security for the safety of your coins in your mew.

If your private key is lost, then you can't open it. This is a no-solution problem. You only have to work hard to find your private key. If you can't find it, you will lose all the coins in your wallet, so I can't help you.

if you lost your private to your wallet, there is no way to recover your wallet. it is advisable to create a new wallet, because no one know your private key, only you. so be very careful with your private key.

I have lost my etherium wallet private key.Could any one know how to recover my private key.

do you still have his json fil? if not it will not get you back, I think there are many cases this happens due to negligence and not create backup data. this becomes an experience for you in the future.

How did yous lost it? Did you delete it or your forgot where did you save? I think you must search it on your social media account because some people save it on their social media or in your phone in notes or in desktop that save on it or else find the json/keystore on where did you save it.

Sorry to hear this but I am not sure you will be able to recover the key if you have not saved it anywhere r even written it down in a diary. This is your key to access your wallet that is why you are advised to always keep this key very safe and privately.
