I have already run the dictionary attacks using 6 different dictionaries including one made up from a generated word list from the user's computers. The dictionaries range in size from 4 GB to 30 GB. I have also used the rockyou-3000, best 64 and dive rules with these dictionaries with no luck. This was before I learned that the password was 13 characters (My first go to was Ophcrack using the large Rainbow tables that go up to 10 characters). I submitted the hash to an online hashcracking website and they reported that they had successfully obtained the password after 4 days and they reported that the password was 13 characters. I could just pay them the $15 fee to learn the password but this is a learning/research project on how to use hashcat beyond the standard dictionary/rules attacks I normally do rather than actually needing to know the password. I am using 12 X 2080ti video cards for the attack so I can run through them fairly quickly.
