Possible to crack encrypted BTC wallet if you lose password? more questions too!

[silversurfer1958]

If you have forgotten all of your Password, then probably you cannot.
If you have forgotten just a portion of yourt pass word, then there is a higjh possibilty that you can recover your funds
though you will need either to try out all the possible combination sby hand or get some technical help to automate this process..

There is a wallet recovery service you can use if your password isn't a full random generated one.  Search this forum.

Is it possible to crack an encrypted BTC wallet if you lose the password?

If it is, how difficult would it be?

Unless the password was very short or you know more or less what it was it would take a LONG time to go through every possible character combination to find the correct password.

The shorter the password was the easier it would be to crack it. For example a 4 character password would be pretty quick to crack. A 30 character password would be just about impossible in an acceptable amount of time with current hardware.

Or unless you do an exploit ex: saving 'image' of all bits on memories of all components of the materials that you have using to access to your wallet, and try to extract from it your "pasword"

More than 8 random letters/numbers is impossible to crack.
