The paper with the data is lost

I only remember the first 6 characters of the passphrase, is recovery possible with your help?

Hi @cluster_p,

The passphrase is not stored anywhere on the device or online. Therefore there is no possibility of recovery.

Every passphrase you enter will open an unique passphrase wallet. To further expand on this point, if you enter a passphrase you think is the original but mistype one tiny detail, or add a space at the start or end, it will create an entirely new passphrase wallet.The crucial step is to find the passphrase wallet where your funds are stored. You can learn more about passphrases, including a video tutorial, in the article here: Passphrases and hidden wallets on Trezor hardware wallets

Passphrases typically consist of a word that holds personal significance to the user. It could be a term that first comes to your mind when you see the prompt to enter the passphrase. Sometimes, users use their Trezor PIN as a passphrase, or it might be a password used for other services. It could also be the name of a loved one or a pet, a place you have traveled to, or an important date in your life.

It is important to note that passphrases are case-sensitive, so be mindful of uppercase and lowercase letters. Passphrases can also contain spaces, including at the beginning or end of the word.

The only way to find your funds is to try as many combinations as possible. I understand it may seem like searching for a needle in a haystack, but the more combinations and options you try, the higher the chance of finding your wallet.

Summary and Checklist:

• Double-check for typos or misspellings in the passphrase.
• Ensure the correct use of uppercase and lowercase letters.
• Check for any spaces at the beginning or end of the word.
• Consider variations that hold personal significance (e.g., names, dates, places).
• Try using passwords or PINs you use for other services.
• Test multiple combinations and variations.
