Rar password retrieval

Sie

I have a RAR file from a few months ago storing data etc that i didnt need at the time. Cleverly I password protected it and now I cant remember the password.

Anyone know of an application to retrieve this? Seen lots of shareware tools but as always something free would be better.

Thanks in advance for any ideas / suggestions.

Well, a shareware tool should be more than enough to crack the password on a file. I'm sure you don't have to pay to use them. Just get the content and move on.

The problem with shareware brute-force and dictionary password crackers is that they are throttled to run slowly, or to stop after performing a certain number of rounds. They must be registered to run at full capacity.

All of the good ZIP, RAR, and PDF password crackers that I know if are for-pay only.

JD is there a good all rounder that i should purchase and add to my 'tools', by this i mean an application that will do other file types rather than just rar or just excel or just access.

Value for money after all!!

I don't have a personal recommendation for a specific password discovery tool. I would suggest Googling for reviews of such tools and trying the ones that are within your budget.
