Hellcat Launcher

Windows 11 Python Hashcat License

An interactive, colorized, Windows‑friendly Python wrapper around Hashcat, designed to simplify WPA‑PMKID/EAPOL cracking on Windows 11. Hellcat lets you:

  • 🔒 Atomatically uses -m 22000 (WPA unified PMKID/EAPOL)
  • 🎯 Choose between Brute‑force (mask) or Dictionary/Hybrid attacks
  • 🌡️ Set a custom temperature abort threshold
  • ⏱️ Auto‑refresh status every 5 seconds (configurable)
  • 🔧 Launch with a single hellcat.bat click
  • 📃 Easy checkpoint restore

💾 Installation

#1 Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/BlackPaw21/hellcat.git
cd hellcat

#2 Download HashCat

https://hashcat.net/files/hashcat-6.2.6.7

#3 extract hashcat

Extract "hashcat-6.2.6" into "HellCat"

#4 Double‑click hellcat.bat to run (installs dependencies automatically).

⚙️ Usage

Interactive Launch

Double‑click hellcat.bat or run:

hellcat.bat

You’ll be guided through:

  1. Hash file path (.hc22000)
  2. Device IDs (from hashcat.exe -I)
  3. Use CPU alongside GPU?
  4. Attack mode (Brute vs Dict)
  5. Temperature abort & Status timer
  6. Mask/wordlist settings

  • Modes

    • brute (mask attack)
    • dict (dictionary or hybrid)

  • Options

    • --mask – mask template for brute/hybrid
    • --inc-min, --inc-max – incremental lengths
    • --wordlist – path to your wordlist for dict mode
    • --temp-abort – temperature threshold (°C)
    • --status-timer – refresh interval (s)
