I'll take a look, it's not looking good for me, such as why I posted in a old thread instead of a new one.. thanks for the real replies I appreciate your response and time.. I guess I am wondering if there is any way to get the master key from the source code using my information as it's a version of Bitcoin from beginning of 2012 🤔
?  Oh and no thanks to the one asking for my wallet haha 🤨🙄

very confused indeed, either way.. what does the berkleydb wallet look like as I have that file..

I hope.. long story short
even though I saved also the c++ code files,
I saved the berkleydb file as well which should be the wallet.dat, thankyou for your reply and yes... unfortunately I am mentally disabled to the max! so maybe i didnt save the wallet.dat but I believe I did.. I also did something (stupid) thinking i was being clever (which I was not) incase a hacker got ahold of my files and would open it and see nothing useful (I had no clue what a hack even consisted of) so I saved a bunch of files from the bitcoin core directory knowing the file I needed to save was in %APPDATA%\bitcoin ...I copy/pasted the files all together on a notepad.. which being I knew the only file I needed was the wallet.dat from %APPDATA%\bitcoin I feel like I must have it, clearly how i saved it, it would come up corrupt.. not knowing that then, anyway unless I stupidly forgot to include the only file i was trying to save(which I just dont think happened but guessing its possible) so I'm trying to say that the redeem script or dirivitation method or masterprivatekey should be there, some place and i possibly just need to follow script .. do math or try things idk, something's gotta give!! maybe? possibly? hopefully? or i could just be s.o.l i dont know

I might need to start a new thread in that case if I do.. sorry my friends! I saw this post and am in a similar situation and I am trying every option exhaustingly as I have a similar (more) balance.. with a corrupt wallet from 2012... I too offer a reward for successful results, I am of course trying to learn everything on my own and am not trying to send my wallet (obviously) which makes things as tough as can be of course, anyway i wanted to quote the post concerning the link that took me to (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/48b5b84ee511d5ccd0d47bb0018c1b3c9ddebeff/src/wallet/walletdb.cpp)
which is the src/wallet/walletdb.cpp source code.. I have that same type of file (a little different/but same just older) and have been reading about going through the source code to retrieve the "redeem script" or the "derivation method" but first I wanted to ask .. what is that src/wallet/walletdb.cpp specifically? as I don't see any strings but I do see key all over.. and I also read the db can leave bits of unencrypted private keys in the db slack space, I just don't follow direction too well but I will try to follow the mentioned directions to get my wallet back, also wanted to ask (off subject mind racing) my python said "cannot import name 'generator_secp256k1' from 'pycoin.ecdsa" when trying to install bitwalletrecover. anyway hoping to get help with this as I have not asked for help on a forum before but been trying for years to figure it out, guess i finally reached my breaking point for my need to get help with this!!! thankyou for reading and I understand walletrecoveryservices is not trying to help me as I have already tried.. did I not save the right file? did I corrupt it and lose the info I need when I saved it possibly by saving it wrong?
  hoping I am not S.O.L!! thankyou for reading I appreciate all and any help, and as I said a successful return of my only hope in the world to not restart my broke ass from scratch will be compensated. CHEERS!
