Does this work on volumes that use key files in addition to passwords? I have a few volumes that use numerous key files in addition to strong passwords and I'd like to get a sense of how strong this really is?

Tried that Haystack password thing (https://www.grc.com/haystack.htm). My password would take 16.50 trillion centuries to crack in an "Online Attack Scenario". XD

"It went through 819 passwords within 45 seconds and decrypted the password." what is the average length of passwords tested?
However it is very very slow.
Try Truecrack a bruteforce tool, for truecrypt volumes, optimazed with nvidia cuda architecture and based on truecrypt. It take about 30 seconds to make a dictionary attack of 10,000 words with average length of word: 10

If you can't remember any of your password and you created a rather long one, here's an idea of how long a crack would take:

Try 16 characters with upper/lower case with numbers and symbols.

You'd darn well better write that password down!

great wordlist generator, very fast

works on xp vista and 7

Another fast solution is TrueCrypt Self Bruteforce

I can't possibly thank you enough for providing this true.crypt.brute tool. I looked everywhere for a truecrypt cracking tool and only found a real solution with your post here. I wasn't able to use the wordlist generator you mentioned, but I found a solution elsewhere. Within 10 minutes it was able to uncover the unique password I had forgotten which opened me to 11GB of very important

Okay, I am as careless as several of the other bloggers. I created a password for a TrueCrypt that I can no longer remember. However, my passwords are usually a combination of the same 6-8 words. Does anyone know of a word or password generator that will create a list of all the possible combinations of words to use with the true.crypt.brute tool. Thanks.

I'm sorry but I have to question your results. You would need to have a blazing-fast computer to be able to process 18 pw/sec using this tool. I just tried it on a reasonably fast Core 2 Duo and it ran at just under 3 pw/sec.

For a computer there are no 'more logical' or 'less logical' permutations of a string of characters. The 'logic' of common errors exists only in the realm of human languages. So your wished program should identify which language it is, then attempt to identify the possible words used in the password and suggest the correct way of typing the password based on a database of

You mentioned using WB to create you passphrase list. Is there other program for creating a list based on permutations of a know passphrase that's 30 or more characters in length? Specifically during container creation a user's passphrase is typed incorrectly (but the same) two or three times. It should be 'X' but is in fact something similar, probably involving swapped

I've been looking for something like the brute force crack. But I'm not a programmer and do not have any clue how to use the password generator. Additonally, I don't just have characters, I have phrases that I need included.

Good to know that Truecrypt is pretty secure if the password is long enough. I have been using this application for years now.
