This option may help if you know the first character(s) of the password. For example, if you know that the password contains five (5) small letters ('a' to 'z'), and the password starts with a 'k', than type 'kaaaa'. Please note that if you press "Stop" during the attack, the program outputs the current password to the "Start from password" window. That password can be used later to restart the attack from the same point.

 

Please note that the program verifies the passwords according to the following character order:

 

•CAPITAL letters: 'A'..'Z'

•space

•small letters: 'a'..'z')

•digits: '0'..'9'

•special characters: !@#$%^&*()_+-=<>,./?[]{}~:;`'|"\

 

You can also use End at field to set the password APDFPR should stop at. It might be useful if you attack the same document on several computers, and can split the password range into parts.
