How to Find the Password for an Encrypted RAR File

It's possible to force the user to supply a password to encrypt RAR archives so a file can be extracted. If you have an encrypted archive for which you don't know the password, or if you've simply forgotten a password you assigned yourself, there are a handful of tricks you can attempt.

Step 1
Check the source of the archive. If you downloaded it from a website, look around the site for a mention of the password (after all, it's unlikely someone offered an unopenable archive for download.) If the person you downloaded it from can be contacted, send them an email asking for the password.

Step 2
Try a few likely-seeming passwords. The name of the source website may work, as may the name or Internet handle of the archive creator.


Step 3
Try a brute-force approach. This involves simply cycling through every possibility, one by one, until something works. You can technically do this yourself, but it would take forever and be extremely tedious. Fortunately there's a program that'll automate the process. The next few steps describe how to use RAR Password Cracker.

Step 4
Download RAR Password Cracker from the link in "Resources" and double click the downloaded EXE to install it.

Step 5
Run RAR Password Cracker and click "Load RAR Archive", then browse to and select the encrypted

archive. Select a file from the archive and click "Add to Project", then click "Next".

  1. You should see how my partner Wesley Virgin's report starts in this shocking and controversial video.

    Wesley was in the army-and soon after leaving-he found hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" secrets that the government and others used to get everything they want.

    As it turns out, these are the exact same methods many celebrities (especially those who "became famous out of nowhere") and top business people used to become rich and famous.

    You've heard that you only use 10% of your brain.

    Really, that's because the majority of your brain's power is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Maybe that thought has even occurred IN YOUR own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head around 7 years back, while riding a non-registered, beat-up garbage bucket of a car with a suspended driver's license and $3 on his debit card.

    "I'm so frustrated with going through life payroll to payroll! When will I finally succeed?"

    You took part in those thoughts, isn't it right?

    Your success story is waiting to be written. All you need is to believe in YOURSELF.
