General Computer Support / Re: Hastcat issue for retrieving windows password

« on: March 19, 2019, 07:23:32 pm »

Hashcat is my favorite tool for password recovery and had a couple of success with PDF and Excel. However, it failed this time for retrieving a forgotten Windows 10 password.

What i am doing: boot the computer with Ubuntu LiveCD and pull off the SAM and system files. Then get the hash file via mimikatz. Finally, cracking the hash value with Hastcat. However, it is running for a week and no password found.

I know something about the Hashcat,but i have not use it to recover password.
As long how to retrive Windows 10 password?
Using Windows password reset disk
Download a third-party tools
Log into the locked computer with other accounts
.....That is all i know.

password reset disk, I don't think so I have one
