How to use the Password RecoveryNOTEThis feature does not guarantee that it may recover all types of passwords. Refer to the following for more information. Bandizip Password RecoveryIf you lose your archive’s password, this feature may recover the password by using a brute-force search. For example, if your password is a four-digit number, you may find it by entering the 10,000 numbers (0000, 0001, 0002, 0003, …, 9999) one by one. Based on the same principle, a simple password (8 or fewer characters) can be found easily by trying every combination possible. Bandizip Password Recovery supports optimization of an encryption algorithm and multi-core processing, which enables an ultrafast recovery. If an archive in ZIP format is processed with Intel i9 9900k, this feature handles 300,000,000 passwords per second. How to use the feature
  How long will it take to recover my password?The amount of time required by your recovery depends on many variables. The archive’s format, the encryption algorithm, the length of the password, and the types of characters used in the password may heavily influence the estimated recovery time.
