New to Hashcat, command starts and then stops after a few seconds
#1
I am very new to hashcat, but I am trying to learn. 

my command is this,  .\hashcat64.exe --force -a 0 -m 0.\hash.txt .\rockyou.txt 

rockyou.txt is a list I found off of the internet, because I couldn't get the default one to work for me

Anyways this is the output that I get


bonus question, is there a way to specify password length?

If the obvious isn't obvious, perhaps a trip to the wiki would help answer both your questions.

No, the obvious isn't obvious nor was it while I was looking through the wiki prior to posting this question. If you could point me in a certain page or article of the wiki I would really appreciate it. I am a noob and very unfamiliar with hashcat.

I don't know why it would be saying that because there is no way it tried all 1,4344,382 phrases in my word list against 6 hashes.

Your output shows: 
Speed.Dev.#1.....:  9316.8 kH/s

It is trying 9.3 million hashes per second. You have 1.4M possibilities? Hashcat ran through all possibilities in a fraction of a second. 

Next, try some rules with rockyou.

Thanks for the help everyone. I was able to crack the passwords by removing hashcat and used John the Ripper instead.
#9
I guess that's a valid option too.
