Hello, this is Bandisoft.
Bandizip and most other tools use a brute-force algorithm to recover a password for an encrypted archive file. It means that the time required for recovery increases rapidly with each additional digit in the password.
For example, if the target password is 9-digit long (lowercase letters and numbers only) and it takes 2 hours to process passwords from 1 to 8 digits in length, processing from 1 to 9 digits would take 72 hours. Even if you preset the length to 9 digits, processing only the 9-digit passwords would take 70 hours.
Leaving aside that there are other technical challenges in adding a feature to preset the password length, as shown in the example above, such a feature would not lead to a significant reduction in recovery time, only a 3% reduction, from 72 to 70 hours. We would appreciate your understanding.

专业版的密码恢复不支持设置最短密码长度密码恢复工具好像默认是从3位开始遍历尝试,但是我知道自己的密码大概是多长的
比如正确密码大概是9位或者9位以上,但是工具从3位开始尝试会浪费很多时间
