Help with mount or brute

[JockScaling]

Hello. I encrypted my SSD using DiskCryptor version 1.3 in AES256 format.
I forgot the password; the drive was 13 characters long, and I only know the first 8 characters (the mask) and the key file (I have one).

Can I use brute-force? I also have the hash, but I don't know how to mount this hard drive. I encrypted this drive during a difficult time in my life, and now I can't remember anything.

Can I use brute-force?

(I don't use the software in question, nor do I know anything about the internal working of it.)

Potentially you can brute force the missing 5 characters, but I don't know if there is some automated tool that applies to DiskCryptor. You already know quite a lot and still have access to your key file.

if you are missing only 5 charakters than its possible, you could use dccon.exe to script the tries it takes all needed parameters to mount a volume with password key file or booth.
But I don't know of any ready to use tool or script, I think nowadays your best bet would be to ask an AI of your least distrust to write you a batch file or a power shell script to use dccon.exe and try out all possible combinations.
