Question about extracting a file.

[Formula1]

i tried extracting a compressed file with winRAR , and the file asks me for a password , does anyone know a good extracting program that can skip through this (password) ?

None exist, you definitely need the password. The password itself is used in the encryption/compressing of the file.

Google for it, there are quite a few apps Clicky

But none of them work. Unless the password is something easy like Britney Spears or Homer Simpson, they usually come with a shitty wordlist that contains common passwords.

All brute-force cracking programs are a waste of time when there is only one possible correct outcome and you've no character limit or any clue as to what it might resemble.

It would take more than a human lifetime for one of those programs to crack a password like ahju87lhfa3012rt

You usually don't get them. Like manker said, when i had one to crack oncee i tried with 2, 3, 4 digits then once up to 5 or 6 it starts to take hours to finish cracking. anymore and your at days, months, even years to finish cracking.
