Save restore file each NUM seconds - MA40 - 05-28-2020
Hello.
I would like to configure an attack so that the restore file is saved each 600 seconds.
I have installed the v5.1.0 beta version of HashCat.
I have seen that in previous versions the parameter “--restore-timer = NUM ---> Save restore file each NUM seconds” existed, but in this version I cannot find it.
How should I do it?
A greeting.

the question is what you are trying to do. and why you would need that feature.
I'm pretty sure it was removed because hashcat can't really be configured to have an update of the progress every x seconds, and therefore the file would be written without any update.
The way it's done now is that an updated progress will be stored whenever the restore point is increased (or we changed to a new mask or dict etc).

Ok.
Thank you very much philsmd.
That answer works perfectly for me.
