Title: Wallet restore Post by: bitneck on July 06, 2013, 05:41:03 PM Hi guys
Bitcoin newb had to emergency reimage PC and has lost his original wallt.dat file. I still know the address, is there any way to collect these coins. Only a pitiful amount, but everybit helps. Title: Re: Wallet restore Post by: JamesIV on July 06, 2013, 08:28:16 PM If you only have the address it is not possible to recover the private key. The private key is what is important. you can extract your private key from a wallet.dat using pywallet.
Look here for details. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=34028.0 Title: Re: Wallet restore Post by: Mr.Dreamanonym on July 06, 2013, 08:39:11 PM Thank you !
