Hello guys,
First of all congrats on how this project was taken off! I invested in Nem a few years ago and had my coins on the wallet on my Mac laptop. Unfortunely since then I have reset my Mac erasing the folder. I am taking it to a data recovery place this week to see if I can recover the folder.
Is it possible for me to recover the wallet? If so what will I need to do?
Cheers
William
I’m quite certain that you can only recover it with either your private key or a .wlt backup file. If you lost both it might become really hard to recover your wallet. Maybe a dev can confirm this?
Thanks for the reply empers! Will the private key be in the folder? I never wrote it down. I was a complete noob back then lol.
I’m not even sure if I will be able to recover it from my Mac, I reset it over a year ago…
No it’s not in the folder you normally get it here inside your wallet under the account menu
If you don’t have the private key written down, you should be looking for a file with a “.wlt” extension. Because I’m fairly sure you can’t get your private key from outside the wallet.
Can I get the wlt file from the android app wallet? I’ll willing to pay someone who can retrieve my private key and allow me to access the wallet again. Thank you!
