Hello- I have a small amount of Ethereum that I mined back in 2017-2018 using a GETH wallet I created. I believe my wife accidently threw away my password that I wrote on a bill for this wallet. I do have the keystore file backed up.
I used this link to create my keystore hash
https://stealthsploit.com/2017/06/12/eth...-cracking/
I set my txt file up in a similar way except I used "262144" instead of 1024 for the N value
I created a password txt file using several combinations of passwords I used from back then
I'm using hashcat 6.2.6 and windows 11
I've opened a terminal in hashcat and tried a few of the commands I've found out there and added my hash.txt and password.txt in the line but just had a series of errors that do not work
Honestly, I was able to build 4 ETh mining rigs but I have not a clue what I am doing in trying to crack this password.
Any suggestions on how I should enter my command line in hashcat?
Thank you, LC
