Title: forgot my local wallet password
Post by: pantera on November 04, 2011, 01:46 pm

yes, selected a passphrase so secure I've forgotten it :)

is there any way to recover it (using windows client) or just keep trying different variations?

Wallet Encryption
. . . If you lose th[e] passphrase, . . . no one, not even the Bitcoin developers can recover your Bitcoins. . . .

I'm thinking variations would be the way to go here.

I forgot my passphrase last week and the easy way to put it is.... You're Fucked.  There's nothing you can do.  I tried everything. 

Sucks.  I keep everything written down now.
