How can i make a mask that has only 1 capital letter but it can be on any letter. the thing i'm trying to crack is only letters, no numbers etc. this is my first time posting so if you need more info pls ask.

The mask attack is explained on https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=mask_attack

For example, if you want to test 4 letters with only one capital letter and 3 lowercase letters, then your masks are:

?u?l?l?l
?l?u?l?l
?l?l?u?l
?l?l?l?u

first line has capital letter as first, second at second position, etc.

Sorry i think i meant something else. I am trying to crack the hash using all of these masks seperately in the same session. do you know how i can do that?

see https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=mas...mask_files

just put these masks into a textfile, one mask per line and use it as maskinput on command line

this way hashcat will try each mask, line for line
