Considered one of my wallets obtained corrupted for some motive and Bitcoin Core model v0.21.1 (on MacOS) fails to start out, suggesting I take advantage of the salvage pockets methodology.

I have been looking on-line to see what meaning, and most information suggests I begin the Bitcoin Core app from the terminal, utilizing the -salvagewallet possibility. Nonetheless, this provides me an invalid argument error and the app nonetheless fails to start out.

Later I’ve learn that the salvage pockets was moved to the bitcoin-wallet software. I am assuming that is referring to the Console and it assumes I can begin the appliance. To do this, I’ve moved the corrupt pockets folder outdoors the app, so I can begin it, not less than. I’ve then tried to import the corrupt pockets, however this additionally fails.

I’ve 2 questions:

1. Is there an up to date methodology of salvaging the corrupted pockets?

2. If not, or the salvaging fails, does a a lot older model of the pockets assist? This older model will, for positive, not embrace most (if any) of the brand new addresses that had cash on them, however possibly Bitcoin Core has a means of deterministically discovering these addresses from its seed when reindexing? (if that makes any sense)

Thanks!
