Early Ripple Client Wallet

[tjbrown20]

Almost 4 years ago I downloaded a Rippleclient wallet and never did anything with it. When I try to open it with a number of programs nothing happens. However, if I open with Word Pad a bunch of characters (couple to several hundred) show up. It's onviosly not an address or a private key. Couple questions. Does anyone know what these characters represent? Secondly a crazy question, I mihgt add. Were any of these wallets pre-loaded with any xrp to help circulate the coin (because this was really early). Thanks for your help. I would like to put this to rest.

@tjbrown20  What is the file extension? If it's an exe then it's probably the downloadable Ripple client that still works but is unsupported. If it's a txt file then it's your wallet. You can access it only if you can remember the associated password OR if you made a record of the secret key.

Its a wallet. Trying to see if i saved the private key or password. Do you know what those characters might represent?

Not sure, but probably some kind of encrypted combo of secret key and other wallet details, totally undecipherable without the client and password.
