Error Hash

[shakapp]

Hi guys, I had problem when I tried to run hashcat with my hash, my rar file there is a lot of file, so the hash was very big, with that size I put the hash inside a text file.

So I used thad command: .\hashcat.exe -m 12500 -a3 .\hash.txt ?d?d?d?d?d?d?d?d

I get that error: Hashfile '.\hash.txt' on line 1 ($): Signature unmatched

HashFile:
[REMOVED - Don't post hashes.]

Hash for m=12500 must begin with "$RAR3$*0*".
Try mode 23700 or 23800.

if you start hashcat without a mode (so no -m ) then it will try to autodetect your hash. In this case hashcat will say:

Code:

Hash-mode was not specified with -m. Attempting to auto-detect hash mode.
The following mode was auto-detected as the only one matching your input hash:

23800 | RAR3-p (Compressed) | Archive

NOTE: Auto-detect is best effort. The correct hash-mode is NOT guaranteed!
Do NOT report auto-detect issues unless you are certain of the hash type.

so it is most likely mode 23800
