+# Compiling hashcat with Cygwin.
+
+
+
+Tested on a Windows 7 SP1 x64 machine.
+
+
+
+### Installation ###
+
+
+
+Go to https://www.cygwin.com , get the setup-x86_64 file and follow the instructions on the website.
+
+
+
+Make sure to install additional dependencies necessary for hashcat compilation by selecting the following packages during cygwin installation
+
+
+
+```
+libiconv-devel
+gcc-core
+make
+git
+```
+
+
+
+### Building ###
+
+
+
+Once all that is done, open the cygwin bash (cygwin\cygwin.bat) and type the following command to copy the latest master revision of hashcat repository into cygwin\home\username\hashcat
+
+
+
+```
+$ git clone https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat.git
+```
+
+
+
+Switch to the newly created folder by running
+
+
+
+```
+$ cd hashcat
+```
+
+
+
+Now type "make" to start compiling hashcat
+
+
+
+```
+$ make
+```
+
+
+
+The process may take a while, please be patient. Once it's finished, run hashcat by typing "./hashcat.exe"
+
+
+
+```
+$ ./hashcat.exe
+```
+
+
+
+### Notes ###
+
+
+
+While hashcat will run fine from cygwin bash, running it from a windows shell will require cygwin1.dll and cygiconv-2.dll to be in the same folder with hashcat.exe (the files can be found in cygwin\bin folder).
+
