Hi everyone! I'm having trouble bruteforcing a WiFi password. When I try to bruteforce it, I get this message:

I use a laptop for this bruteforcing
I've just started using hashcat and understand next to nothing about it, as well as its forum. I apologize in advance for the possibly inappropriate question and formatting.

Also make sure your GPU drivers and hashcat version are up to date, and review the official docs or example commands — they clarify a lot of the common setup issues for new users.
