Good day,
I have spent the last two days banging my head against the wall and I am very confused as to why my hash files are not working. I used dd running on debian linux to extract the first 512 bytes from my encrypted file and I saved the file using SHA-512 default settings within veracrypt. However no matter what algorithm I use I am always met with Exhausted status.

This is bizare to me as I created a test encrypted file with a password of abc123 and I am using the following instructions to hashcat.

What am I doing wrong here? I feel like I am following the instructions to a tee however it never guesses the right hash even when I have such a simple password as abc123. I am running hashcat on my windows pc because I have two GPU's to use for faster hashing, my other computer (running debian) is using a low end nvidia card so the two AMD cards in this one are much faster.
I should also add that I even created a txt file wordlist that contained only the exact password abc123 and changed my attack mode from mask attack to brute force and even with the exact password I used, it returns Exhausted status.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
