The Easiest Way: Find RAR File Password with RAR Password Recovery

Interestingly, this application works in simple steps which are shared below and is optimized to utilize minimal system resource. With support for all Windows OS version, this software app is the answer to – how to find password in RAR file.

Steps to find RAR password with RAR Password Recovery:

Step 3. Define a recovery mode.

There are up to four unique recovery modes to choose from on this app; Normal, Mask, Dictionary, Smart. The “Normal” recovery mode is used when you can remember the length/range of the lost password. “Mask” recovery mode is similar to the “Normal” mode, however, you have to define the mask parameter in this mode. This recovery mode is used when you still remember some part of the lost password sequentially. On the other hand, the Dictionary recovery mode is a bit different from the previous two, this mode instructs this program to look up passwords in a default of self-defined dictionary file. Finally, the “Smart” mode will attempt all possible character combinations to discover a password to unlock your RAR file.

For the sake of this tutorial, the “mask” mode is being used because we still remember some letters contained in the password (‘f’). The question mark following the ‘f’ letter (in the image shown below) signifies that the subsequent letters that make up the password are forgotten.

Once you have selected a recovery mode, go ahead to click on the “Start” icon and RAR Password Recovery will get back the lost password. However, the time it will take before this program successfully cracks a lost RAR file password may take longer time based on the complexity of the password.
