7z False positive -> True positive, rule or not... - arduan77 - 01-28-2024

Hi...
I'm trying to decode 7z Qlocker password with my own password generator
MikiDecoder
no success yet, but...
I know, it's impossible to find simple the rule for passwords in 7z, but I have found something interesting, I think. I have tried to compare all false positive passwords, but I haven't find any rule if I divide, multiply, subtract, try to find HCF and LCM in for all corresponding password-number.
So, I wonder about one thing that seems interesting to me, I want to share with you.
I've been working with Hashcat and hash/password for a long time, and I have seen, that false positive passwords appear at specific intervals. I mean, in my situation, almost always hashcat finds two false positive passwords in one day, then there is a break for 2-4 days, and again two false positive passwords. What do you think about this, is it worth looking for rule?
