Title: Bitcoin wallet file is damaged due to storage format problem
Post by: Lisibaw on April 11, 2024, 02:19:04 PM
The wallet file of my bitcoin wallet is stored in the form of text.
In 2013, I copied and pasted the secretkey in the wallet file into a newly-built word document, and then deleted the secretkey in the original wallet file.
 A few years later, when I copied and pasted the secretkey into wallet.txt again, the wallet file was unusable and destroyed. My wallet file contains the following information:
partner:xxxxxxx
secretkey:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Excuse me, masters, how can I retrieve Bitcoin by program or other means?

Would you mind to check if the secretkey is a WIF key that starts with K or L or use the link below to check if the secret key you are using looks the same as the private key listed there?

Once you confirm the secret key is a WIF private key you can import it to the Electrum wallet you can download the Electrum wallet from this link below

You can follow the guide below on how to import the private key It is old but the procedure should still be the same
