Thanks I'll try a different recov_outputdir and see if that helps. Problem is it takes several hours to run before showing me the error message.

Is there anyway I can just get it to do a faster run using the locations from the pywallet_partial_recovery_<timestamp>.json file?

Thanks for the help so far but it's still not working unfortunately.

I'm running this command:
c:\Python27\python.exe pywallet.py --recover --recov_size=250Gio --recov_device E: --recov_outputdir C:/


I've tried without entering a pass phrase and get the following:


Read 250.0 Go in 194.0 minutes

Thanks!

Hello,

Back in the early days I remember mining some BTC with a CPU using the original miner.

I think I've found the drive I did this on but it has since been reformatted and used to store a mix of photos and videos.

I have attempted a recovery using Pywallet which is indicating that it's finding some keys but then doesn't seem to be putting them into a wallet.

Can anyone tell me how I can view these keys?


Thanks!
