Hashcat froze desktop (PC)

[camer333]

I'm cracking wpa/wpa2 with hashcat 4.1.0. Workload profile -w 4 was included. Always hashcat froze desktop after 10-15 hours of cracking. Hashcat freeze PC at "mjklpr42"password. Does exist any way to continue cracking from that password to "zzzzzz99" without wordlist?

Use --restore option to resume attack from last restore point. If you didn't specify a session name with your attack, it will be named hashcat

hashcat --restore or hashcat --session sessionname --restore

Thanks God, I'll try it. I found out one more way. We can apply -s or --skip option -s mjklpr42, too.

no. --skip does not accept candidates

Not accept in single hashcat, but accepts candidates in merge with maskprocessor. In maskprocessor -s means start word something like a skip...
