Session restore and Increasing the Thread Parameter - kingaddi - 02-05-2014

My question is about the session restore feature with regards to the parameter -n. Here is a snippit of the script that I am currently running:
Code:
hashcat-cli32.exe -m 1800 -n 2

I know and have tested that I can stop the script from running and later on restore the session. But as you can see I have the parameter -n set at 2. Is it possible to restore the session and change the -n parameter (i.e. 8)?

cpu hashcat does not have session support. so yes, you can use a higher -n value with -s.

Took your advice and it works. Thanks.
