Is there a way to extract a password hash from AESCrypt archive?

[zub]

maybe the main problem was something completely unrelated.

for instance, I noticed a lot of users just copy-paste commands... so for instance they copy-paste this:
(ATTENTION: this command is not correct ! it is dangerous !)

Code:

> hashcat.exe -m 22400 ...

ATTENTION: this command is not correct ! it is dangerous !

when doing so, what happens is that the redirect symbol ">" is writing to the file "hashcat.exe" and therefore destorying/corrupting the executable.

When the executable file is overridden, it's of course not working anymore and therefore you get an "Access Denied" error or similar.

I think this is pebcak and hashcat works with any type of disk (HDD, SDD, thumb drives etc <- not all of them are recommended of course, but it should work without problems anyway)

Maybe you should step down from your horse with your six stars and try to read my post and picture one more time please.
