How to Recover a TrueCrypt Password in Windows? (this is my password)
The original question was posted on Reddit and has already been closed ☹. However, for TrueCrypt (as for any other strong protection) the answer in 2021, just as years before, is still the same:
“For the topic starter, obviously, the issue is already solved, but I would like to recommend Passcovery Suite anyway.
Three reasons why:
• GPU acceleration on NVIDIA/AMD
• Merging and mutation of multiple dictionaries
With graphics cards enabled, searching will go faster (RX 6000 are awesome at it 😜). By using range customization options with brute force or dictionary attack you will cut unnecessary password arrays and save much time.
So we will ̶w̶i̶n̶ break the password. 😃
Goal: To recover a forgotten strong password
Method: Cutting off unnecessary password arrays to reduce the range to the most likely ones; testing the resulting range at the maximum rate
Tool: Passcovery Suite or single-format utilities by Passcovery”
