Building to run on Windows 10

bmwenger007 opened this issue 5 years ago · comments

I am having a very difficult time getting this to build on Windows. I have set the path to the make.exe file and the cl.exe file and it still will not work. I have also tried putting them into the src_XX folder and then running make and it fails when running. I have installed Cygwin to get the make and gcc executables. I have installed Visual Studio 2017 and the CUDA toolkit version 10. Anything else I may be missing (other than a decent Linux computer on hand?)?

Thanks,

As of today, I have been able to get the hashs (both User Password and Recovery Key) but I can not get Bitcracker to build the main portion. I have tried using JtR, but I keep having the same issues and I can't find what I'm missing. Are there step by step instructions somewhere I can use to compile this? I have a 4 GB flash drive that my friend wants the data off of, but he can't remember the password.

BitCracker is fully supported on Linux but I never tried to build it on Windows. Maybe if you could paste here the errors you're getting it would be more helpful!

Thanks. I've had to rebuild the computer I was doing this on, so I just set it up to dual boot and I've been playing with off and on.

Thank you again!
