Hashcat Dictonary Attack not working - Jayy2004 - 11-28-2020
Hi all,
I installed hashcat a few hours ago and did some tests with the dictionary attack mode, all worked fine and I encountered no problems (Except for an error showing "Not a native Intel OpenCL runtime", but I used --force and that worked fine but if anybody knows any permanent solution that would be helpful.)
Anyway a few minutes ago I ran the same command and hash-cat could not find it, I even made a .txt file with the exact word the hash was (password, md5) and it still didn't work. I tried restarting my computer and same result, same result with every hash / file I do.
Command ran - "hashcat -a 0 -m 0 286755fad04869ca523320acce0dc6a4 '/home/jacob/test.txt' --force"
The text file has 1 word (password) in it.

Should I re install hashcat?
Thanks

Never use --force and install a proper OpenCL runtime for your device.
