How to recover password via 4uKey - iTunes Backup?

Tenorshare  4uKey -   iTunes Backup is a professional software whose main task is to recover lost iTunes backup password. To find the data you need, you will need:

1. Select an encrypted backup file. To do this, you will need to get an iTunes backup from two options, which can be found on the main page of the program.
2. Next, you need to select the version that you want to restore. The user will be shown all available backups. After the desired choice is made, you need to click on the Next step button.

 4uKey -   iTunes Backup offers users multiple attack types to choose from. Each of them has its own degree of decryption efficiency:

1. Brute force attack.
2. Mask attack.
3. Dictionary attack

The first option, a brute force attack, is an attack that attempts to brute-force all possible password combinations. This method should be chosen in the case when the user does not even have a rough idea of ​​what the password might be. However, it should be borne in mind that such an attack can take quite a long time, but the wait is worth it. The password will be found.

If the user remembers at least something about the password, for example, some characters, then the mask attack should be chosen. The parameters for this method include the following information:

1. Range of characters.
2. Setting affix.
3. Password length.

When this data is set, the program will be able to find the password faster.

There are times when the password from the backup is often used (at least that's what the owner of the device thinks). But at the same time, there is no clear certainty what exactly he is, then you should choose a dictionary attack. To do this, you need to install a text file with possible character sets, and then import it into the program. 4uKey will independently analyze and process all options that could theoretically be used by the user.

Recovery time will depend on the following factors:

1. Password length.
2. Complexity of the password.
3. Special attack settings.

Usually, if the password is no more than four characters, then its search is carried out very quickly. It won't take long for this. But, the longer and more complex the password, the longer it will take to find it. As soon as the program finds the correct option, a window will appear on the display, where the required data will be displayed.

Algorithm of actions

The general sequence of actions is as follows:

1. You will need to download and run  4uKey -   iTunes Backup on your computer.
2. Next, in the main window, you need to select the Get iTunes backup button.
3. Next, select a backup to restore.
4. Then you need to go to the next step.
5. After that, the required attack type is selected to disable the backup files.

The last action will be to click on the Start button. This will allow you to unlock the lost password. A few minutes later (or more, depending on the complexity of the required data), the password will appear in the window that appears.

Can I remove my backup password?

1. Click on the button to delete the backup settings. This function is responsible for utilizing backup encryption settings from the device.
