Here's a sample run of cracking the password 'john': C:\>crark.exe -c -l4 -g4 Chap7.rarĬopyright 1995-2001, 2006-09 by P. When cracking longer passwords, it will take a substantially longer amount of time due to the myriad of possibilities to try. Even though cRARk is one of the fastest RAR crackers out there using extremely optimized MMX & SSE code, this holds true for any brute force application. If you do know a small detail about the password, such as the approximate number of characters, it allows you to input that as a switch to dramatically shorten cracking time. One caveat is that it will take very long to crack an archive if you know nothing about the password, and it is > 6 characters in length. It is also designed to work with CUDA so you may want to take advantage of that if you have a powerful GPU. cRARk is a freeware command-line RAR password cracking utility available for Windows, Mac and Linux. You can bypass the hash extraction altogether and use cRARk instead.
