Stella Data Recovery 7z Password Recovery

One of the basic methods of protecting files is to include them in a password-protected archive, which can be of various formats, including 7z. In case you lost this password and have no backup of the items inside, you can use specialized applications like Stella Data Recovery 7z Password Recovery to find it.

The application takes little time to install and is good to go by the time deployment is done. The interface is wrapped around a classic window frame, with several recovery methods to choose from, upon which the recovery options become available, each method having its own set of configurations.

Needless to say that the main and only accepted input consists of a 7z file, which can either be dropped over the window or loaded through the browse dialog. The file remains intact and in the end you simply get the password to use in the conventional way.

As mentioned, there are three different methods you can use in your attempt to recover the password. These are dictionary, brute force, and mask attack. Each comes with dedicated configurations.

The dictionary method means the application attempts to use words inside a dictionary file as a password until the correct one is found. Note that if the password is not in the dictionary file the process fails.

On the other hand, you can configure the other two methods to include lower and uppercase characters in the search operation, as well as digits and symbols. The difference between brute force and mask attack is that the latter can also detect spaces and all printable characters.

There are high chances to recover the password in the end, but it can take a while. This consists of the password complexity, length, as well as the computer performance.

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that Stella Data Recovery 7z Password Recovery is sure to come in handy if you have a bunch of important files stuck inside a password-protected 7z archive.
