Hey, how can I change easy the  working directory in the restore file?

when i change it, I get 
"Unusually high number of arguments (argc) within restore file /home/****"
you probably broke the file when you tried to edit it. The format is documented here: https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=restore
I have to delete with hexeditor 2 byte,
now all is good

thx
In the future, you can also use https://github.com/philsmd/analyze_hc_restore, written by a core hashcat developer. You can rewrite a restore file, changing various config items.
