Binaries for rarcrack 0.2 on Microsoft Windows

By admin | January 24, 2009

Note: Were you looking for the Linux binaries?

Rarcrack is a lightweight and powerful tool for cracking lost or forgotten RAR passwords. However, there is no already made package, so here is one pre-made for you. These packages are Windows binaries compiled for x86 and x86_64 machines.

If you wish to compile and install it yourself, you will need to use a patch which allows rarcrack to build on Windows and better integrate rarcrack into Windows.

    The binaries are not supported on the x64 platform – you will have to install Cygwin and compile using the patch for Windows. See the Compdigitec Forums thread for more details. Please post if you have any way to cross-compile from x86 Windows machines.

    Does it work on normal (ie: 32bit not the x64 platform) versions of windows? As that’s what I’m attempting it on and I’m getting the same error.

    Ah I see, I had to install Cygwin.

    It seems to be working on my windows XP x86 But I made my own test file with a simple password and it didn’t find it? Do I need something else? My password I wanted it to find was “100″ And it didn’t find it??? HELP!!
