Hi friends,

I have an Samsung EVO SSD 500 GB and I forget to back-up my bitcoin wallet.
now I have an fresh Windows 10 installed. But I can't find my wallet back with an tool named "Recuva".

I just bought an new SSD and now try to get my data back from the old SSD.
(Just ter prevention so I cannot write more data on the old SSD).

Wich program is good free or to buy so I can get my data back?
Thanks in advance

SSD is nearly impossible to recover data from if the cells have been marked as empty, such as after a format or file deletion, and trim or garbage collection have been given time to run. Combined with the evo's 256bit AES internal encryption I don't believe anyone short of the NSA is going to be getting your data back.

Sorry for your loss.

Earlier, did you install Windows 10 onto the old SSD containing the bitcoin wallet? If yes, you might have already over-witten partially or totally your bitcoin wallet; if yes, recovery just might require the services of a local or distant data recovery company / specialist because an SSD is, to me, much harder to recover files from.
