Hi guys, I recently just lost access to my wallet albeit it is a fairly small amount inside, I'd still like to get it back though. I went through this entire article http://www.gobitgo.com/articles/1005/How-To-Recover-Your-Bitcoin-Wallet-Password/ and I have the whole process set up perfectly so I can run the test and it works. I've tried it using my own wallet.hash and wordlist a few times now and it is running properly but it keeps on finishing without actually ending up finding the password are there any suggestions or changes I can make to the script that might make it work? Thank you in advance for any replies. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Ps: I actually do know very fairly close to what the password should be and it is around 32 characters so that may or may not complicate things.

I did an experiment today and found out something interesting.
This is basically my situation at the moment.
My 42 coin wallet is encrypted and I had generated a 100 character password and then cut and pasted it into a text document, notepad to be precise in Windows. But then later on when I copied and pasted it into my wallet to do a transaction it said there was an error. I have tried and tried with no success.
Anyway I noticed something today. Basically when I made up some test wallets and copied and pasted the text, it worked without a problem but then I noticed in some situations that if I selected the text but my cursor was maybe one or two lines above or below the text when I selected it, then it would fail, so I have a feeling that I have done something similar with my password.
Is it doing this because it has added characters to the text, like page breaks etc?? that I can not see??
I also think when I copied and pasted it the first time around to enter into my wallet to encrypt it, word wrap was on and also the text was wrapped onto the next line. This has probably affected it as well.
Anway that is my problem. Has anyone come across this problem before?
Thanks

Almost certainly, yes. I also think when I copied and pasted it the first time around to enter into my wallet to encrypt it, word wrap was on and also the text was wrapped onto the next line. This has probably affected it as well.
Quite possibly.

Would guess that you know all the words that are in the password.
There is no way to reset the password. Try hit and trial method

Hi, I'm using the Revalin ruby and works awesome. I lost my litecoin wallet password but I think there might me a combination of two or three words.
The problem is that I usually swap one or two vowels by numbers and I can't remember which of them I did.
I'd appreciate a lot if you help me with the function that, giving a word by parameter, it returns a list of all the words with different combinations, where a might be replaced by 4, e by 3, i by 1 and o by 0. I only need that function, the Revalin code is pretty clear.
I know that is something that I could do manually. I have 2^n combinations, where n is the number of vowels on a word.

This might do what you need: password_elements = ['p', ['a', '4'], 'ssw', ['o', '0'], 'rd']
def splat(accum, elements) if elements.any? [elements.first].flatten.each { |elem| splat(accum + elem, elements[1,999]) } else test accum end end
splat('', password_elements)

Hi
Can someone help me out, I have written down my multibit wallet password incorrectly.
I know the length of the password and I know what characters are contained in it but the possible combinations could take me all year to manually type out.
the password is structured into two parts a word 1 then word 2. Word 1 could be 'bitcoin' but the b could be a b, B or 3 and the i could be an i, I, 1 or a ! and so on. Then second word follows the same pattern.
Has anyone written a scrypt that could attempt to brute force a password with a similar structure?
The wallet doesn't contain many coins but a small reward is on offer If I can recover the coins

hello, I am trying the method of brute force, using the brute.rb file, and I have installed Ruby, its in my C drive, Ruby 200, I made the brute.rb file, which contains, #!/usr/bin/ruby -w
passphrase = "what i think my password is" characters = " !\"\'(),./0:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}"
def test(phrase) print phrase, "\t" system("./dogecoin-qt", "walletpassphrase", phrase, "40") case $?.exitstatus when 0 puts "Found it! #{phrase}" exit 0 when 127 puts "dogecoin-qt not found in current dir" exit 1 end end
# transpose adjacent chars (passphrase.length - 1).times do |i| testphrase = passphrase.dup testphrase = passphrase[i+1] testphrase[i+1] = passphrase test testphrase end
however after I am doing this for doge, and I have edited the .RB file appropriately, but after I paste, dogecoin-qt -server -rpcpassword=wow -rpcport=22555 into CMD, the DOGE WALLET opens, then I type brute.rb, and nothing happens. Can someone help me figure this out?
In my dogecoin.conf I have addnode=95.85.29.144 addnode=162.243.113.110 addnode=146.185.181.114 addnode=188.165.19.28 addnode=195.154.7.113 addnode=195.154.7.114 addnode=195.154.7.115 addnode=62.210.124.137 addnode=78.46.57.132 addnode=62.210.198.42 addnode=62.210.198.44 addnode=62.210.198.47 rpcport=22555 server=1 daemon=1 rpcuser=doge rpcpassword=wow
Thank you

I've tried really hard to get this working on my mac, installed Xcode, learned the basic in how to use the terminal, installed Git and Homebrew and fiddled around a few days but never got Bitcoind to run on OS X 10.8.5. Now I'm trying this windows app (on my work-computer -> bad, since boss will fire me if he finds out I have admin-rights on it ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ) that I just found: Recoinvery.com However, it seems to crash a lot, so still no luck. I'll report if I get any luck with it.

I have an armory wallet with 1 BTC in it - 18MBduHLgWmQDMH5UZsrzYDtNnyDha85GT
I have no clue what the password is. I have 2 or 3 general passwords that ive tested numbers and capitals and spacings on and no luck. ive tried the obvious (password, mypassphrase, bitcoinwallet, etc) that might have been inspired at the time over a year ago.
Either i misspelled something or went with a string of characters which I cannot find - I'm giving 50/50 odds on which it could be.
How can i try to bruteforce an armory wallet with windows?

Hi,
I forgot my multibit wallet password. So I have been trying the scripts in this thread. I get the "bitcoind not found in current dir" response when I run the brute.rb script. I think the problem is that bitcoind does not run when using multibit. Is is possible to use these scripts on windows for multibit wallets? I remember the first 10 characters of about 14 so brute forcing it should be possible right? I installed ruby using the windows installer and put the multibit.wallet file in the same directory as the brute.rb file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is that normal that it takes YEARS? I try with windows 7 and it tries 1 passphrase per second so 60/min Isn't there any real bruter like for .zip files with 2000 passwords per second? Or a GPU bruter ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Hey Revalin, I've got a tip for you if you can help me with my case. I've made a wallet back in April 14 2013 and transferred 10BTC into. However, now I can't access it and I'm pretty sure I typed my password in correctly. I've been trying and trying and eventually gave up. But looking at the BTC price now makes me want to shoot myself in the foot. There's an easy 2BTC in it for you if you can help me gain access back to my wallet. I made a reddit post quite a awhile ago that states more details about me and how I'm an idiot and lost my coins, I'll dig up the link to it if you want to see it.
Basically I need a program that can automate imputting my password guesses (stored in a .txt file) into multi-bit's password field, and then click "unlock". Multibit would do the actuall deciphering of the aes.json file, I just don't know how to automate something like this.
I guess I could manually copy and paste the 11,000 or so entries by hand, but that would take me months of constant work. Sometimes I wish I learned programming. *sigh*
Let me know.

UG, I could probably whip that up for you except I don't know what a multibit wallet is. Got a link?

Multibit is just a wallet manager essentially, and one of its features includes an "import wallet" option which allows me to import my blockchain.info wallet (which uses a aes.json filetype as opposed to a wallet.dat) into the program. However, I can't import it without the right password. If there was a way for a script to run all my passwords in my dictionary though that field then I could possible get my coins back. OR OR OR If someone could type up a script that does exactly that, but for this https://blockchain.info/DecryptWallet.htmlI have the encrypted backup key that I need to guess the password for. It would be pretty easy to know if what was entered is correct, simply because nothing else shows if I enter an incorrect password. Again, I'm offering a bounty on this if anyone helps me successfully. Here are my lost coins' home https://blockchain.info/address/1FhTGBke8f2vAf86GSXpSTgMCknU8sPxJS .

UG already found a solution, but I whipped-up something that may help you all with similar multibit wallet issues: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5rcnx4kknt0t4p5/UnivPWhacker.zipThe package shows it works. Run the testapp, then run the MouseXYScreen app on top of it. Write down the numbers while hovering over the top textbox and then write them down for the command button. Exit the mouse app and run the hacking app. Enter the four numbers you just wrote down and hit go. You will see how all entries from the pws.txt(must be named this) file get entered. The hacker app should work with a pws.txt file with up to 29.9K entries and with any app where you need to enter a guess and hit one button over and over again. :-D You may need the VB6 runtime also.

I whipped up a really simple site to help generate lists of guesses and put it on http://lostpassword.info. If you think you have a typo or know the pieces of your password it'll make you a big list of guesses. Last month I lost my password for a few days and wrote a bunch of scripts to help get my BTC back. I'm happy to help anyone else get their coins back so let me know ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

You can find a free software that will help you recovering any qt wallet lost password : www.recoinvery.comI used it a few weeks ago for a lost passphrase >> everything worked great for me. You can find this litecoin and bitcoin password recovery software on their official website. Donation is not mandatory so it's up to you to make a donation or only recovering your password for free ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Let us know if recoinvery worked for you too !
