Title: bitcoin wallet corrupt. Post by: julio77 on March 11, 2014, 12:12:06 AM Hello everyone.
After searching a few days in google and of course, in the forum, I could not open an old wallet with a few bitcoins inside. Long ago you kick-bitcoint backup with qt but now when I try to replace the file wallet.dat, trying to open the bitcoin-qt appears a message saying the file is corrupt. also try to open it with Rescan nor. I tried to open the file to dump the keys with pywallet.py shows me an error page. any idea what else could do about it to save my bitcoins?. Title: Re: bitcoin wallet corrupt. Post by: byt411 on March 12, 2014, 04:47:32 PM If you file is CORRUPT, then you can do nothing. Unless you have the private key written down somewhere, it's impossible to get your coins back.
Check if you have other copies of your wallet.dat that work. Title: Re: bitcoin wallet corrupt. Post by: julio77 on March 12, 2014, 05:13:18 PM hello byt411.
Thank you very much for responding. I currently have several wallet.dat but all they say is corrupt. I guess when you say private key, you mean to put a password to the file? if so, if I have it. but what else to do. Title: Re: bitcoin wallet corrupt.

I guess when you say private key, you mean to put a password to the file? if so, if I have it. but what else to do. The private key is not put a password to the file. A private key is the key to be able to spend the coins in your address, which is contained in that file. Maybe you could've written it down. Title: Re: bitcoin wallet corrupt.
