Old backup file you cannot open
You still have the .wallet, .key, or .mbhd backup but no working install of MultiBit to read it.
Wallet recovery
MultiBit HD / Classic
Open legacy MultiBit wallets that no longer run on modern operating systems or where the password is forgotten.
How MultiBit HD / Classic works at a glance
MultiBit was a popular Bitcoin wallet during 2013–2017 before it was discontinued. Many users still have funds in old MultiBit Classic or MultiBit HD backups that current wallets cannot import directly. Recovery usually means extracting keys from the old format and sweeping them into a modern wallet you control.
Situations we commonly help with
If any of these sound like your case, we've handled it before.

Lost seed phrase, backup intact
The 12-word seed is missing, but the encrypted backup file still exists.
Need to sweep funds into a modern wallet
You want to consolidate funds into a current wallet you actually control, on supported software.
