i have olchashcat about 50% into a WPA2 session but i want to restart the machine
is it possible to restart and use the --session command to resume or do i need to configure or pause the job before i reboot?
If you didn't specify a session name when you first started the task then the default one would be used. So restart with just the --restore option and it should pick it back up.
so its safe to select "pause"
close application and restart
then use --restore to capture the session once more?
If you use the new hashcat-3.0.0, use
[c]checkpoint. You can read the details of this new feature
here under section called '
Added the option to quit at next restore checkpoint'.
Then simply run command below to restore your session.
Code:
./hashcat64 --restore
Best regards
