How to Add a Password to a 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

Everything You Need to Know About 5G

  The latest CES 2019 set some trends for the future of technology and one of the most anticipated is the arrival of 5G Internet in the market. With the promise of being extremely fast and with double capacity for information transmission, the technology comes to revolutionize communication between everything connected to the internet. After the event, some innovation gurus say that from 2020 onwards we will live the “Data Age”, in which any electronic device will be able to analyze data that will be received via sensors or cloud. The big advantage of the 5G will be its simultaneous connection capability as the current 4G can handle a maximum of 10,000 gadgets within 1 km 2 . The arrival of 5G guarantees a range of 1 million devices within this same radius. And just as importantly, 5G will also bring data transfer capacity of up to 20gb, while 4G supports up to 10gb. And do you know where 5G technology will take immediate action? Obviously in smart cars, which are the future of transpo

Network Security: LAN manager authentication level

In windows server 2008, if we go to Network Security: LAN manager authentication level(gpedit.msc -> Computer Configuration -> WindowsSettings -> SecuritySettings LocalPolicies -> securityoptions ) and right click on it, we cannot change the value of the authentication level. It is greyed out. To change this we need to go to following registry entry.. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel and set the value. LmCompatibilityLevel should be 0 for Send LM & NTLM responses 1 for Send LM & NLTM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated 2 for Send NTLM response only 3 for Send NTLMv2 response only 4 for Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM 5 for Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM & NTLM know more :  lan manager authentication level

Five technology trends for 2019

Even as new technologies are developed, innovation around the application of existing technology is rapidly changing how organisations operate and how we interact with the world. Leaps in computing capacity, data capture and connectivity are accelerating this change. Here are five areas to watch in 2019 and beyond… Artificial intelligence AI is about machines with human attributes - speaking, reading, seeing and even recognising emotion - completing tasks while also "learning" from repeated interactions. Using algorithms that adapt to location, speech or user-history machines can perform tasks that are dangerous or tedious, more accurately or much faster than humans. Within a few years, analysts predict that all software will use AI at some level, according to US research and advisory firm Gartner. Importantly AI offers the opportunity to continuously tailor products and services providing a competitive advantage over rivals that is not easily copied. The question
