Many users opt for the solution compress files to share them through the web, with a large number of applications that use the most common formats to compress and decompress.
And when it comes to sharing in a private network or that do not have public access, the best idea is to add a password to the file, protecting it from reading or decompression by unauthorized users.
If we forget the password, or do not have it, there is an application called 7z cracker that allows us, in addition to performing the basic functions of compression and decompression, recover the passwords of the compressed files (although for the moment, of course, only possible with 7z files)

7-ZIP is truly powerful, adding a password to your files is even easier.
We will try this program to break the passwords of this type of compressed files.
It is very slow. They should make a version that takes advantage of all the cores of the pc. It's maddening. 🙁
slow is that with a core i3 (2 cores 2 threads) it tells you that while it swears to crack the password it is using 8 keys per second while in images with heavier systems and less powerful computers it says that it uses 29 keys
