When attempting to use btcrecover 0.17.10 with Python 2.7.14, I encountered an error regarding an unrecognized wallet format. The error message displayed is as follows:

Starting btcrecover 0.17.10 on Python 2.7.14 64-bit, 16-bit unicodes, 32-bit ints
btcrecover.py: error: unrecognized wallet format; heuristic parser(s) reported:
    WalletPywallet: Unrecognized pywallet format (does not look like ASCII text)
    WalletMultiBitHD: MultiBit HD wallet files must be named mbhd.wallet.aes
    WalletMsigna: Not an mSIGNA wallet: no such table: Keychain
    WalletBlockchain: Can't base64-decode Blockchain wallet: Incorrect padding
    WalletBither: Not a Bither wallet: no such table: addresses, no such table: password_seed

This error occurs despite attempting to parse various wallet formats using the heuristic parsers available in btcrecover. It appears that the program is unable to recognize the format of the provided wallet file, leading to the failure of the recovery process.

I seek assistance in resolving this issue, as it impedes my ability to recover a wallet using btcrecover. Any guidance or workaround to successfully parse and recover wallets of unrecognized formats would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
