TrueCrypt Hidden
#1
So I have a TrueCrypt Hidden Partition I can't remember the password for.

The unhidden (first/primary) partition can successfully found using mode 6213

"/Users/xxxxx/Downloads/filename.tc:thisisthepassword

Will the hidden partition also be mode 6213 or could it be one of the other TrueCrypt modes?

Depends on what type of algo you specified when you created the volume. If you did not touch it like most people, the answer is yes, it is also mode 6213. The extraction of the necessary data is different though. See https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=fre...pt_volumes
