sinister666 Posted August 18, 2009 CID Share Posted August 18, 2009 i have an .rar file, i cant remember the password i put on it to open it. its a music cd that i no longer have a hard copy of so i need to open this so i can have it again and i cant remember the password. anyone know of a way to recover the password for an .rar archive? ive tried to google this and come up with programs that only waste my time.

mudmanc4 Posted August 18, 2009 CID Share Posted August 18, 2009 Thats all I come up with as well, Iv'e never lost a password to one. If you remember what program you used to put the pass in, that might be help, maybe not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well hope it works for you, I can't stand losing my music, I never had any music till around a year ago, then i bought a machine just for it, I really just paid for the music, it was a certifiable P.O.S. But there were probably a couple thousand songs on there. I made them mine after purchasing them, and burned them to a disk, trashed the HDD, then sold the proc and memory .

AlucardHS Posted August 18, 2009 CID Share Posted August 18, 2009 Childish, me Naaaa, besides 12 year olds don't know about that kinda of stuff. As for that link, well i kinda gave a damn about your little issue so i posted that. In reality you cant really do that for any .rar file so your S.O.L. on that. As for the growing up and doing something part, hmm maybe i should just stop here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starship_troopers Posted August 18, 2009 CID Share Posted August 18, 2009 Didn't someone try to retire on the testmybucks won from that to? i always thought noone could crack it so shug finally gave out the password. not sure. though. let me try to find it again.

starship_troopers Posted August 18, 2009 CID Share Posted August 18, 2009 well here is the link to that thread i mentioned about shug daring everyone to crack a password. i havent been through it all yet but it may be of some help. http://www.testmy.net/t-16120.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinister666 Posted August 18, 2009 Author CID Share Posted August 18, 2009 well, after reading thru that post, i saw nothing useful to help me, and i tried using Advanced RAR Password Recovery, but it wanted to take 8 days, im not gonna hog my computers resources for 8 days for that, so i guess ill just give up and see if i can find the cd somewhere else, it just sucks cuz the record label it was on went under, lost the distribution deal they had, and can no longer be bought or ordered. why oh why did i put a password on this? i wish i knew what i was thinking oh so long ago....good ol Detroit Acid Rap, and its locked and i cant get into it....breaks my heart really. but thanks for the input guys, really.
