Have you created raw copy of your harddrive? It's safer to make raw copy and perform deep search from the copy.

I would recommend to use one of existing tools, like https://github.com/pierce403/keyhunter

PyWallet also have option to scan drive[1], https://github.com/jackjack-jj/pywallet.

And the most likely you will not be able to extract your private key if wallet was encrypted with password.

If OP remember/identify date of wallet last access correctly, it shouldn't be encrypted. Encryption only available since Bitcoin Qt 0.4.0 which released on late 2011[2].

Do you know what you are looking for? You should look for hex values "0420" and "308201130201010420".

If you have been using the hard drive, that's normal. Chances that you'll recover the wallet.dat in that case is very slim.
