You probably used a pool, and it was probably slushpool. Try to login with an email you used at that time. Sometimes they can have details that help you remember some other place that you may have kept your keys. Or at least how much you mined. It may also be that in this old email you may have kept the keys to the wallets. They are small files and most of the time we make several copies.

i already sent them an e-mail to support hope they will help.

which files should i look for in my hard-drive ? any idea ?

i just did 2 things copy all data to my laptop using External usb hardrive mount ( Copy + Paste ) and tried to recovery search using EaseUS data recovery and recuva, but didn't recover or write anything on the hard drive

Well, this couldn't have worked.
Simple copy/pasting only copies files 'registered' by the file system.

When files are being deleted, they are not really 'taken off the drive'. The space where they ware saved is being released instead.

Therefore you either need to (1) work on the original drive (NOT recommended!) or (2) on an image of the drive (recommended).



now i will follow ur steps and Clone my hard-drive and check Jack pywallet.

Keep us updated. For cloning you might want to boot a linux live distro and use dd.

I used FTK imager 4.2.0 to clone the hard drive just managed to finish one, i made 2 copies .E01 and dd don't know the difference but better to take precautions

now i downloaded Autopsy 4.9.0 for windows with GUI and started examining the 'evidence' .E01 still under process analyzing files

Since the files on the disk should be still there, first you should search for keywords like wallet.dat or multibit or miner.
First 2 are for info about possible wallets. If you find wallets, please work only with copies or keep backups.
Something that also crossed my mind, but I don't know how true it is, is that you may have not withdrawn your Bitcoins from the mining pool and then, although your chances are not great, you should look in the config of the miner and see what pool did you use.

am afraid of that thing as well, i remember GUI MINER, which keeps crossing to my mind, i hope the pool i chose didn't exit scam and it pay automatically i don't need to withdraw manually,

i looked into my hard-drive with programs that bring back deleted files didn't find anything yet Sad , there is one external i am looking for which should have a back-up of everything i ever had CROSS FINGERS

Warning: Do not entertain PMs requesting private keys, seeds or file copies especially from newbies. If possible, keep the discussion public.

Recovering the "undetermined amount" of mined bitcoins from an old (wiped?) disk depends on the available information you can remember.
But looking at the OP, it's as good as blind searching.

First of all, if it came from Mining, there's no guarantee that you've successfully hit a block (for the old solo mining) or configured the mining software and pool account the right way.
Next, you should at least know the (worker) bitcoin address or the wallet where it belongs.
Lastly:
i don't remember the pool or the miner or the wallet nor the seed xD
You can't solve anything with this.

Start by, using a recovery software if the disk was previously erased and look for file names starting with wallet, default_wallet, wallet.dat and something similar.

thank you a lot for ur reply, this is exactly what i need, i don't remember the old mining softwares, just GUI miner maybe there was something else,
also i don't remember which wallets i used so i am trying all possibilities.

if its possible to tell me all the possible miners and wallet names i should look for from that time ?

yes it was recovered i did that easily and its working but honestly don't know what to look for

I saw the Help section before and used RX580 OC settings on my RX570

the funniest thing happened on Claymore 11.5 mining ETH

i used Core Mhz 1130
Memory 2125 ( crashes with anything more than that )
Undervolting 975

and i was getting constant 26-27 MH per card

then i tried to use lower power outage which was on 6

as i go lower the Hash increases which i don't know why is that, anyway on 3 i got 30 MH stable rig

can some one explain why thats happening ?

hope it helps some one else
