Yes,I've tried. Dictionary cache rebuilding every time, the file has not changed.

Please ensure that hashcat.dictstat2 file is still there, after first cache build.

If no such file (moved/deleted/renamed/..) , no cache hit.

hashcat.dictstat2  is still there and it modify time is new. path has unicode word in it ,does it matter?

Yes, this could be a problem as hashcat checks modification times.

If the mtime was modified but no real changes in the dictionary file, consider this:

If you can compile hashcat, insert “ d.stat.st_mtime = 0;” here:
