Remember those 24 words you were writing down during the setup? That's your "cipher seed" - now this words are important to recover your wallet. If you don't have them anymore: go back to option "Recover LND data" (see above) and check all possible ways to recover data from the HDD. If you still have the word seed: good, but read the following carefully:
With the word seed you can recover the on-chain funds that LND was managing for you - but it does not contain all the details about the channels you have open - it's mostly the key to your funding wallet. If you were able to close all channels or never opened any channels, then everything should be OK and the best results to recover on-chain funds from wallet seeds are reported to get from installing the Lightning Labs App on your laptop and use the wallet seed (and same wallet passwords): https://github.com/lightninglabs/lightning-app/releases

If you had open channels it would be best to check if you have also the `channel.backup` file (Static-Channel-Backup feature) that is available since LND 0.6 (RaspiBlitz v1.2) and use that in the process below ... for more details on the `channel.backup` file see [README.md on backups](README.md#backup-for-on-chain---channel-funds).
