### Restoring from keys

Restoring a wallet from private keys is pretty simple. If you have the necessary information, with this guide you can completely restore your wallet. Note: you do NOT have to have your password to restore from keys.

You need to have 3 pieces of data from your wallet, or your .keys file which holds this info and the password to decrypt it. The 3 wallet components that you need are:

1. **Address**
2. **Secret Spendkey**
3. **Secret Viewkey**


#### CLI

Run the wallet command:

`./monero-wallet-cli --generate-from-keys New_Wallet_Name.abc`

Next, you'll be asked for the Address, the spendkey, the viewkey, and finally the new password for the re-generated wallet.

Running this with the correct parameters will re-generate your wallet files for you and allow you to set a new password.

If you run into any trouble, running `./monero-wallet-cli --help` will show you the options available to you at wallet startup. Once you're inside your wallet, running the `help` command will list the help for the commands available to you within the wallet.

#### GUI

Launch `monero-wallet-gui`. If this is the first time you launched it go to the next step, otherwise click `Cancel`:

Click on `Restore wallet from keys or mnemonic seed`:

Select `Restore from keys`, give your wallet a name & storage location, and complete the `Account address (public)`, `View key (private)` & `Spend key (private)`. Optionaly, specify a `Restore height (optional)` to avoid scanning of oldest blocks. Then click the `Right` arrow:

![restore wallet](png/restore_from_keys/restore-wallet.png)

On the next page, give your wallet a strong password and confirm it before clicking the `Right` arrow:

![wallet password](png/restore_from_keys/wallet-password.png)

Specify your daemon settings and click the `Right` arrow:

![daemon settings](png/restore_from_keys/daemon-settings.png)

Click on `USE MONERO` to enjoy your restored wallet:
