Hash of veracrypt file
#4
hey man, not an expert but maybe this will help:

it sounds like you know some of the password, and have come up with some variations that cover most cases and you now also need to tack on a couple digits? (you said with different last two digits, which may also refer to the -m switch, correct me if I'm wrong)

If so, what you want is a hybrid attack with a mask. This basically takes a left or right hand side and appends a mask (mask being a group of characters to combine in all possible combinations).

`hashcat64.exe -m XXXXX -a 7 yourhash.dd test.dict ?a?a`

this command would append two characters of any type to each entry in the dictionary (I believe). You can look up hybrid + mask attacks in the docs for more details.

Another alternative, if you know the basic 30 characters but not all the variations you may have used (3 for e etc), then consider looking at the LeetSpeak rule. This does exactly that to a wordlist, substituting characters for their variants (l for 1 etc).

Good luck!
