Hey guys, I've seen some pretty knowledgeable people post here, so I figured I'd try asking for help here as a last resort.  Sad

I made a blockchain wallet about six months ago. I think I had either my identifier or my pnemonic saved in a .txt on my desktop, then forgot what it was and deleted it. Very stupid, I know I know. I made the account while using Tor, so finding the IP from which it was created isn't a possibility. I don't think I associated an email address with the account, and I used an alias and password different from any of my usuals. I also don't think I ever had a wallet.dat, but I'm not sure. If I did then it's been deleted. I've been emailing password ideas to blockchain customer support for two weeks with no luck.

So, I'm pretty sure I'm SOL. But I wanted to ask, are there potentially any internet history/cookies/any type of file that may have some clue to what the heck any of my information was, that may still be retrievable? I've run a data recovery program called Recuva, though couldn't find anything helpful, but I don't really know what I'm doing all that much.

I hope you didn't have much on there.
It is gone.

Even if you had your email saved with them, blockchain.info has no access to your private key.
That is why it is one of the best online wallets out there.
