    Man,I’ve been trying to unzip a file I password with the fcrackzip-1.0-win32.exe.

    I use windows vista and the report I got was:
    a msg box with the msg: “fcrackzip-1.0-win32.exe is not a valid Win32 application”
    Then on the cmd.exe, this is the msg I got on it:
    “Access is denied”
    Wat will I do?

  • By Koresco, December 22, 2009 @ 8:05 am

    Is the software incompatible with Windows Vista or is it truly not a Win32 application?
    I need the information on the file dearly..
    Help me, I most beg of you..
    Thnx!

  • By admin, December 22, 2009 @ 11:34 pm

    Sorry, I have no 64-bit system installed, so I can not test it, have you met any problem?

  • By admin, December 23, 2009 @ 9:41 am

    The Vista security feature that’s most effective — and the most annoying — will sometimes prevent the Run and command line tools from doing what you tell them to do. This is (usually) due to the fact that you haven’t told it you’re an Administrator. Note: this technique can be applied to other programs as well.

    I overcome this annoyance by creating a desktop shortcut and setting its Properties to “Run as an Administrator”.
    Go to Start >Programs and open the Accessories folder. Right-click on, and holding down the right-click, use the cursor to drag the black Command Prompt icon to a vacant area on your descktop. Let go and select (click) “Create shortcut here” from the list of choices.

    Now you will have a new, black Command Prompt icon. Right-click on your new icon, and select Properties and click on the Shortcut tab. Now click on the “Advanced” button toward the bottom
    Place a check in the “Run as Administrator” checkbox, and click the “OK” button twice. That’s it!

    Now you will be able to accomplish the advanced commands as you expect you should.

    Works wonderfully.

    The –help is adequate, but I would like to suggest -c option be changed.

    I suggest changing

  • By smith, July 10, 2010 @ 5:12 am

    When using the -u parameter I get a lot of “The System Cannot Find the Path Specified” errors.

  • By admin, July 10, 2010 @ 7:29 am

    if you pdf file name has space? and can you send me the pdf file? my mail is rocsky#gmail

  • By eric, September 1, 2010 @ 1:10 pm

    I am also getting “The System Cannot Find the Path Specified” errors when using the -u parameter i have command line unzip.exe in the same folder as fcrackzip.exe and the .zip file.

  • By Milla, October 6, 2010 @ 9:09 pm

    To get the -u option to work the “USE_UNIX_REDIRECTION” macro must be undefined. I’ve made a change to the source that does this if the app is compiled under Windows (in MinGW), and submitted this change back to the author.

  • By Rikki, December 29, 2010 @ 5:45 am

    If you want this programe to be usefull for non-computer geeks, then you need some more information on how to carry out the cracking. Your screenshot clarifies how to acces to program, but not how to carry out the cracking… What exactly should I write in cmd.exe? Regards Rikki

  • By whatever, May 29, 2011 @ 6:21 am

    It works !

    if you use windows:

    1. press start
    2. klick on run
    3. type: cmd in the box that appears
    4. you get cmd prompt like one in the screenshot
    5. find out in which folder your fcrackzip.exe file is. Copy it to your c drive along with the zip file that you want to unzip
    6. in black cmd prompt type: cd.. until you see c:\
    7. type: fcrackzip.exe (and the name of your zip file)
    8. cracking starts

  • By Shaily, June 14, 2011 @ 7:04 am

    I can’t open the file! I double-click on the fcrackzip.exe file, but there’s a flash on the screen (like a window is trying to open but fails) and then ther’s nothing. What do i do??

  • By vedant, July 21, 2011 @ 7:59 am

    how to install it in windows 7???

  • By admin, July 21, 2011 @ 10:00 am

    It is a CLI(command-line interface) application, just run it under under cmd or use it in batch files.

  • By admin, August 31, 2011 @ 6:24 am

    to start fcrackzip, simply drag and drop the .zip file onto fcrackzip.exe. no installation required

    Hi I admit to being a novice. I extracted the fcrackzip.exe to my desktop and dragged the zip file to to icon. A dos (or cmd) box opens with a flashing cursor but then nothing happens. I am using windows 7. Any suggestions?

    many thanks

  • By admin, January 5, 2012 @ 11:41 am

    you should run it under cmd or in batch command.
