Hi, I had to reset my PC but I had backed up the private key and passphrase. Before resetting I bought a VPN service with the bitcoin and then I reset my PC. I tried to restore the wallet and had done so successfully. I had spent 0.06 BTC on the VPN and now the rest of my bitcoins are gone, it says they have been spent. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks

If you have the private key or paper phrase would help to recover your wallet or else if you use the wallet which is synced with the online view like electrum or bitcoin core means you could able to recover your bitcoins.
According to his statement he backup all the private keys and passphrase so i think he can still recover it just use the private key and install in electrum for faster sync if you install it again in bitcoin core you should reinstall the bitcoin core and fully sync it before you can seen your balance of your account..  so my suggestion better to install it in electrum instead so that you can not wait for syncing..

Yeah I used the same passphrase, ill try it with electrum then
