hashcat Forum

With https://hashes.com/en/generate/hash I have created 3 hashes, 4 characters in lenght:

hash; 4c2e81405006edc6bf1727aada0387f5e49c8012       pass:£íݾ
hash; 65397f57ef46b46a9b41a2941eb34355d6a12261        pass:ù©»Ø
hash; 0b6fab05b46b7f887b089d768ce9bef587e4ff61        pass:ÆÁ¥¸

Is it possible that Hashcat does not known how to use those characters or am I missing something?

hashcat does crack these hashes, make sure you are using the correct encoding for your wordlist, it is known to be a potential annoyance.

could you give me some pointers please?

Like, copy the plaintexts from your post in notepad, save as UTF8, use that as wordlist, hashes get cracked.
