Well, one time it did help me when I knew the password but it didn't work

SpoilerTurns out the zip I made on Android didn't understand UTF8 as password, and translated non-ascii characters to some other codepage, or something like that

Works great to "recover" passwords during security assessments. It's always fun to tell C-levels their passwords.

I "recover" passwords while I smoke "medical" marijuana.
