Hashcat not starting in Windows 10 Home Edition - sp00ks - 12-30-2020
Hi,
I have a Dell XPS13 laptop that I'd like to use with hashcat for testing purposes using the CPU.
Not for cracking just to test my scripts are working correctly.
The current output I get when running hashcat is no output, the cursor does blink for a second giving the impression
something was tried in the background but then no output, like so.
(This is what i mean by no output)
c:\Program Files\hashcat-6.1.1>hashcat.exe -I
hashcat (v6.1.1) starting...
c:\Program Files\hashcat-6.1.1>
I can recreate the issue with hashcat 6.1.0, and from either Powershell or Windows Command Prompt.
I am running the cmd and PS prompts as administrator as well using runas.
Am I missing a software download?
I have installed:

As a workaround, I can disable the Graphics driver from Device Manager and execute hashcat as expected.
Maybe the 2021 Graphics drivers will work with Hashcat in the future.
