hashcat Forum

I'm trying to crack a PDF file (version 1.6). Here are the contents of hash.txt: <redacted>

Hashcat says it cracked the hash, but there is no password.

It doesn't seem to show a result. The password is not empty.

The password is already cracked, therefore it's not going to crack it again.
