hashcat Forum

Hello ,(i hope i'm not in violation in any rule)
i'v created a veracrypt container and stored in it some sensitive data of me . however now i can't remember the password ( i remember parts of the password) and i need to access my files ,
my plan is to use hashcat but for that i need to get the hash from the container
what i did so far :
I created a new container with the password "hashcat" and i used the same method described for truecrypt to get the hash (first 512 bytes) from the container and i compared it with the hash provided in the hash examples in link but i can't find the same hash
please someone help me ..

I think you're able to just point HC towards the container if I remember correctly.

Same procedure as for TrueCrypt:

If you just try something like:

hashcat64.exe/.bin/.app -m 13713 (or whatever you'd like) path_to_container -a 3 ?d?d?d?d?d

Does that work?
I know it does for TC containers.

You'll have modify the above line to match your requirements.
