I was able to recover my old file.dat i have a lot of time to download the Bitcoin software package
Can any of you check the balance in my wallet, please? or any way to check it online
If you use the
dumpwallet command on the console in Bitcoin Core, you'll be able to get a list of addresses and private keys contained in your wallet.dat. You can then either import the private keys into another wallet like Electrum and replicate the transaction history/balance in a matter of minutes, or you can check the
addresses on a blockexplorer to see if there is anything left in your wallet.
Otherwise... the best/safest option is to simply let Bitcoin Core finish syncing... you won't accidentally expose any private keys and you can be assured that whatever the balance displayed is when finished is correct.
Also, please don't create new threads when you have identical ones already posted:
