Hashcat 7Zip tutorial for Windows users - iscrewedup - 08-29-2021
Hello, I forgot password for 7zip archive, but the good news is that I usually use similar or same words and numbers when making my passwords, meaning i can make a dictinary.
The problem is I cannot get the "hash file" from 7zip because the tool that I need to use runs on Linux only and I have no idea how to do this.
Can anyone make a tutorial how to use hashcat on Windows operating system to recover password for 7zip archive?

Hi just tried it, I cannot install packages on Cygwin and in the setup there is no package called libcompress-raw-lzma-perl so I cannot proceed further.
