Usually there’s a wallet.dat file which is what actually contains the wallet data. It might be stored in your home directory under a folder with a dot, I.e .dogecoin
Try poking around with the terminal to see what you can find

Nope.
The file you need is the wallet.dat. Or one of the backups you made… you DID make regular backups, right? Especially after every spend, since any change would have gone into a new wallet you didn’t know about.
Armed with that, and a new instal of Core/QT, it only takes a couple of minutes to swap in a copy of your wallet file and use the DUMPWALLET command to create a new text file with all your wallets in it. Then you can throw the client away and never waste any more resources on it.
Search here for ‘text wallet’ and have a read.

If you’re lucky those pictures are your keys and you can access the wallet with that.
