I replace but …
so i put the backup and I still have the bug
I thought so old data recovery is not easy.
Do you think it’s possible?
Hard to tell because I am not a data recovery expert.
I hope so much that I can get my account back …

When you run Ubuntu download and install: Snappy-fox
https://github.com/berdav/snappy-fox
Launch a terminal in the folder snappy-fox:
and write a command: sudo apt install make gcc confirm the installation by pressing Y
Then just compile the application next command: make
Now you see new file with name snappy-fox everything is ready.
Now I’ll move my file 709 to folder snappy-fox
and the last command is: ./snappy-fox 709 709.txt
file 709.txt will be without special characters yeah

Hi Luigi I have a white screen on metamask and need to recover my seed phrase can you please help me walk threw this I have made progress but have a valuable collection and don’t want to screw anything up your help would be greatly appreciated
Hi @andrewfromqueens command below does not work when the wallet cannot be opened
chrome.storage.local.get(‘data’, result => {
var vault = result.data.KeyringController.vault
console.log(vault)
})
Try to use my instructions which you see above.
Thank you so much for your reply I am up to the em editor portion of the walk threw Im guessing I need to ignore the virus warning prompts and warning that says your files will be corrupted?
hehe EmEditor is a fast, lightweight, yet extensible, easy-to-use text editor for Windows
not a virus
already found my data in the emeditor but I found a bunch of special characters in it so im downloading ubuntu really appreciate your help
