Hi, I've just successfully used hashcat for the first time using Windows CMD. I'm trying to use hashcat as part of an easter egg hunt and am much more comfortable navigating a Unix shell, so I tried to install it in WSL.
My hardware is AMD Ryzen 9 5900X & RTX 3080.
I apologize if these are basic questions, but the forum doesn't allow search terms with less than 4 characters (such as "WSL").
Should hashcat work fine within WSL for both CPU and GPU?
I found a post which recommends uninstalling POCL followed by another post which recommends manually installing POCL and all its dependencies, then performing some manual configuration. Simply uninstalling POCL seemed insufficient... is all of this necessary? Surely I should be able to install the proper version of POCL with a package manager to manage the dependencies?
