Hi everybody. So I have a RAR archive that I need to get the password to. I would be able to do this but this RAR archive is unlike anything I have previously seen. When you open the password protected archive, you can view the files just like normal. You are only prompted with a password upon extracting the files. I have tried multiple cracking programs. Hashcat, John the Ripper, and cRARk. When I use rar2john, a program supplied with John the Ripper to hash the given archive, it generates a very strange looking hash; one that doesn't work with either hashcat or John. cRARk immediately attempts to crack the first file in the archive. Any idea what to do next? Thanks!
