Title: Bought Bitcoins, Sent them to a wallet I unistalled. 1100$ Transaction Post by: hellanator3 on September 29, 2015, 09:43:11 AM So this is kinda my last hope. I've been using this wallet for transactions for years. so there is defenitely a chance of me finding something again. Right now. I'm creating an image of my hardrive with winhex.
I knew the password if there is one. I have sent money to wallets on sites to purchase things ;) I have no reformatted or anything with my computer. the last time i used this wallet was about a week ago please help me I will be willing to share my money with the helper Title: Re: Bought Bitcoins, Sent them to a wallet I unistalled. 1100$ Transaction Post by: ranochigo on September 29, 2015, 09:58:49 AM Which OS and wallet did you use? If you simply uninstalled it, there is a chance that the data has not been written over unless you installed the wallet again. If you used Bitcoin Core, it is unlikely to have been fully uninstalled. Navigate to %appdata% and find Bitcoin folder, copy the wallet.dat away. If you can't find it, google the place where your wallet stores the private key and try to scan using recuva (https://www.piriform.com/recuva/download)

You have to run it off a separate partition to the one your recovering from.

Please provide more information: OS, wallet, reinstalled wallet? #edit: also remember, when you now install new SW and the appdata of btc is deleted when you deinstalled it, then you have the risk to overwrite deallocated memory and to have no chance to recover. So better is to wait and analyse the situation.

Do you have the wallet words? https://www.multibit.org/en/help/hd0.1/restore-wallet.html Title: Re: Bought Bitcoins, Sent them to a wallet I unistalled. 1100$ Transaction Post by: shorena on September 29, 2015, 11:26:30 AM I am on windows I used multibit Hit Win+R, it opens the run window, enter %APPDATA% and click "ok" the explorer will open at a certain folder which should contain one named "Multibit". In this folder you should find your wallet files. Uninstalling the wallet does not remove these files.

In this folder you should find your wallet files. Uninstalling the wallet does not remove these files. And if for some reason this doesn't find it, having the wallet words will be helpful in restoring it - if that is what you meant by "password".

And then just import the wallet-files into Multibit. You can do this inside Multibit. |
