If you are running in to any problems with the tool, try Ophcrack’s FAQ wiki page. There aren't many solutions if you run into a bug or error, and since the software runs by booting into a Linux environment, troubleshooting can be particularly tough if you don't know much about Linux (like me). Simple passwords tend to be quick – complex passwords take more time.Īnother problem is lack of support. The cracking process can take some time, as well, depending on the password you are trying to crack. Ophcrack won’t work against strong passwords that use many random characters – particularly if you are trying to crack a Vista/7 password. There are some severe limitations to what this tool can do. Once a password is cracked it appear in the right-hand column on the main window. Don’t be alarmed – things are working as intended. The software will run through several more steps, which include black screens with running lines of text, before entering into the Ophcrack menu and beginning the cracking process. The default is “automatic” and that is what you should generally use.
