General (Settings)

Select General tab from Settings Dialog Box to control the following options:

Process Priority

Select priority of the password recovery program by choosing between High, Normal and Background levels. Note that High priority level will take a lot of CPU resources and could slowdown other programs.

Attack Types

Select the attack types you want to use to recover a password. You can change these attack settings by selecting Dictionary , Xieve Optimization, Brute-Force or Symbol Set and Known Plaintext (Zip Key only) tabs. You can also enable SureZip Recovery (Zip Key only).

Options (Zip Key only)

Password recovery process could be very slow in situations when Zip Key tries to recover the password for a ZIP file that has an encrypted ZIP file inside. To avoid speed reduction please enable Zip - in - Zip Optimization. Zip Key will check archives contents for files with .zip extention and start Optimized attack in case there is one.
