Does hashcat on WSL can use GPU?

Hi all, To my understanding when using hashcat on a virtual machine it can only use the CPU, my question is if I use hashcat on a WSL, can it use the GPU?

The question is specifically about hashcat but if you have a general answer for other programs as well (as teminals that are GPU accelerated) i would love to know.

Thanks in advance!

Catching a malicious actor

Someone has been targeting my partner for the last couple of years, first they stole a bunch of her old photos and are making fake profiles online and defaming her publicly. Happened 4 times already.

Now they’ve gotten her financial information and are making charges on her credit card.

I work in Information Technology as an Infrastructure Engineer and Senior SysAdmin, but hacking is a different game for me, I’ve only played around with Kali in my homelab.

I know the Police won’t be of great help with this but we are still going to file a police report.

However, I need to to put my skills to good use and try to catch this son of a dirty whore, and hoping one of you blackhats/whitehats can guide me down a path by providing me with a strategy that I can use to take down this fucker. For educational purposes…

Feel free to DM me
