What would the best tool for recovery attempt be and would R-Studio proffesional version help with this case?
That tool would certainly help but since you've mentioned that it's already formatted (
hope it wasn't random/zero-filled) and installed with an OS,
It's highly likely that the wallet will be corrupted upon recovery.
Drive formatting which perform random/zero fill could took few hours, so most software usually perform quick format. Although reinstalling OS (which also create swap-file with moderate size) write fair amount of data.
Hello everyone,
I found an old HDD where i was mining bitcoin.
The hdd was formatted with OS re-installation.
What would the best tool for recovery attempt be and would R-Studio proffesional version help with this case?
I have spent the last few days learning about hex searches if rhe file does not appear from ordinary scan function
Consider pywallet[1], it can scan whole HDD and image file of your HDD.
