can you split up a rule file? - turbogiant76 - 10-25-2015

I am trying to run some possible passwords through dive.rule but may need to restart my computer.  I don't know of any way to restore a session that is using rules, unless I missed something.  When I do, it starts at zero progress.

Can I safely split dive.rule into several pieces and run each after another?  Thanks.

I know how to resume.  When using a rule-based session, all progress is lost.

Sorry, didn't read properly. Could've bet resuming works for rules, too. But yes, you can safely split the rules file into as many pieces as you wish.

Resume works for rules, too. Bute note the bigger the rules files, the longer it takes to reach a useable restore point, and dive.rule is huge Smile
