If we were able to recover funds from an address, everyone would get hacked. There is no solution except trying some file recovery programs to try and recover your JSON file.

I have tried data recovery but it got failed as i have kept in a harddisk and that system i had formated 2 to 3 times and the backup which i kept in a pendrive that got lost, that is why  i am asking help. But what told is also correct if we can recover from address then anyone can hack it.

Im sorry with your problem, unfortunately it means you lost your assets. little My suggestions in the future will be better beside backup in local memory (flash disk / mmc) You also save you backup json file in online storage like google drive, cloud, or other trusted online storage media

the one suggestion i got for you is to move forward.
you can earn more than that within 1 week in the current market!
good luck mate!

Unfortunately there is no other way except for you to recover your JSON file but other than that, there is no chance for you to get your coins back. I had the same problem before and since I really can’t access it, I just accepted it’ll be gone for good. Sorry for your losses, I know how it feels.

Sorry for your lost, all the means of recovering your wallet were lost so there's no way for you to recover those. Take this as a lesson that you shouldn't be comfortable keeping your JSON file or private keys so keep it where you know it is safe. I don't know if this is going to work out but have you tried system recovery on your PC?

I have lost my MEW ETH wallet private key and JSON file, now how can i recover it as i am having 0.15 ETH and 15k TKN token which is going to be listed next week. My full  1 month work is lost. Please help me in recovering my wallet private key. I only have ETH address with me.

I do not know there is way to retrieve the wallet without JSON file. Wit private key you can do that to take the funds out to the wallet.

I see the recent days there is the news says myetherwallet is hackable you should not have and all but still I am able to make the money out of it bro.

If you lost your private keys in MEW you cant recover it anymore unless you can have someone who can recover your files. Since your coin already distributed you cant request from the team to send to another wallet your token. so you should forget those coins even it is hard of course. next time you better had a back up files when it comes to private keys.

Been just wondering how a Hero Member doesnt even know how to keep up either one of the important things either a key or json file? Mind boggling for a High rank member doesnt even know the basic things on keeping this important informations.
Theres no way you can access that wallet again because even if you do have the wallet address its still useless. Consider those tokens and eth lost forever.

Haven't you saved even your paper wallet? Or even took a photo of it with your phone before?
We all know that the wallet can't be recovered without the Keystore / JSON File or Private Key, so if you really can't recover it and no copy of paper wallet as well, nothing else you can do.

Hi my friend ! If you can recover your wallet then I think myetherwallet is no longer safe to use. Create a new wallet and secure it better. Back up your private key and JSON file to multiple copies. Save them where you think they are safe. good luck !

That is why you should have the backup of your private key not in the digital format.But anyway the amount you lost is not huge so next time store your private keys in the paper.But you need to accept your loss and move on for now and learn the lesson. Smiley

For a hard drive or harddisk that had been already reformatted 2 to 3 times i dont know if its still possible for a recovery service to do its job because as far as i know 1 reformat would still have the chance of such recovery but i dont know when it comes to 2-3x. Havent you tried out to consult to recovery service if it do have still the chance?
This is the hardest thing when we dont make any backups of our keys either on cloud (which isnt suggested) or on a piece of paper will do already.

Yes this is still possible, I've watched a video before that a data recovery expert managed to recover and see all the files written on a scrap hard drive.
I have tried all source to recover the data, even I tried with professional service and that also got nothing. Actually I had lostt the pen drive where I had kept the private key, now just praying that I get my lost pen drive
It's possible to recover data with data recovery services but once the storage was the one that lost, yeah only praying will help you out. I'm hoping that you'll find it soon.

I once read an article that there is a way to restore access if we forget the private key for the wallet we have. But I do not know for sure and have not tried it, maybe you can visit the site here https://walletrecoveryservices.com

Note: I just share information and do not suggest anything.

I think there is only two ways to recover your file, it may work and may not, Contact white hat hacker or someone who can help you to recover your file, profesional.  ( only hire if your token value is very large if not then no one help you for free here.)

Try to use each and every data recovering software, use them carefully too.

This are some link which may help you:

We still can recover the datas from the harddrive but the OP's fund in the lost wallet is just one month rewards but the harddrive recovery is very very costly in my country which i about $3000 or more so I don't think it is a good idea to recover from that drive.
