So the algo is -m 120 instead of -m 140?

Also the pass is 12 characters long and uses numbers + upper/lower case letters, is it even feasible to crack this?

One more thing I do not get is how Inno Setup protects the actual encryption key, the way I understand it is that Inno setup hashes the entered key and compares it to the hash it has, then if it gets matched it just decrypts files using a completely different key (which is a sha1 of salt+pass). Am I wrong?

Edit: Actually now that I think about it, decryption key might be getting made (sha1($salt.utf16le($pass))) after the pass has been verified, pretty clever though I am still not sure.
