Does anyone know the name of the file in the Westwood folder than remembers your passwor (login information)?

I cannot for the life of me remember what it is; trying to install Renegade on another PC using my existing account.


Much appreciated.

It's stored in the registry, but in a hashed format, so unreadable. Check the sticky about registering a nick on xwis for more info on how to reset your pass.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

Is it MD5 Hashed? Coz i found a php script that dehashes MD5, also the guy that coded it found it as a python script.

It's impossible to accuratly de-hash an MD5 hash to it's original form because multiple inputs will produce the same hash. The best you can do is collect MD5 hash results into a database and then get all the possible known inputs that *could* have created the given hash. The possible inputs for each MD5 hash are infinite unless the length of the original input is known.


Also, they are not MD5 hashes anyway, they are encrypted using WOLData.key as far as I recall.
