Topic: Wallet.dat corrupt? (Read 3024 times)
anyone able to get my mintcoins back from a corrupted wallet.dat?
Alright guys, thanks for the advice, Just so you know I found a really old wallet.dat that worked!
It's so important to keep lots of backups people! It paid off for me, I do wonder how this was able to corrupt, and even copy's that were backed up before it showed corrupt?
Oh well, Thank is something I guess I wont know, Or able to find out.

EDIT - Also I cant open with notepad, It just crashes. (notepad goes unresponsive)
just to be clear, you can't "recover" by opening wallet.dat with notepad. Even opening a working wallet will result in gibberish. 
A little bump as I still need help, Pywallet did not work for me, Got to a "data dump failed" on web page, thats it, I dont know what to do.

Look at the console where you launched pywallet, the last lines must tell you what happened (check there is nothing private before posting) EDIT - Also I cant open with notepad, It just crashes. (notepad goes unresponsive)

did you try opening with notepad to see if there are any salvageable privatekeys?
Are you trolling? I heard there is a deeper salvage possible, look for it
If it still doesn't work try the pywallet recovery feature
If it still doesn't work try the pywallet recovery feature
having a look, I can find nothing beyond the -salvagewallet command, I will look further.
I will use pywallet as a last resort, I'm not that good at stuff like that, I got into a mess last time I tried to use it.
On the other hand the recovery feature can't do any damage, it just read things
Anyway if you choose to use it and need help, ask me

To be honest, I would not know what to look for, let alone how to extract and import it elsewhere.
By your question I am assuming that the wallet.dat has gone beyond the beyond?

I have a wallet.dat and several backups at different points, but all now say
Also it renames my .dat to a .bak?
I have tryed on windows and linux systems, 8.1 and 8.3, Have I lost this wallet?
