    Until you give a LOT more details, you'll get squat from here.

    Asking for advice / assistance to utilise 'nasties' in windows is NOT the best way to introduce yourself.

    So, please add as much detail as you can viz-a-vie the whys and wherefores for this 'project' and maybe you'll get some help. Just don't hold your breath ........

    You have given NO details in your profile, so, until you prove yourself, you might have to learn to fly this baby solo
    so now I'm in my SIXTIES FFS
    WTAF, how did that happen, so no more alterations to the sig, it will remain as is now

    You must spread your AntiPoints around before giving it to Nokia again.

    lol - I guess I still don't get the question? Whats hard about typing "john" with the proper switches?

    Usage: john [OPTIONS] [PASSWORD-FILES]
    -single "single crack" mode
    -wordfile:FILE -stdin wordlist mode, read words from FILE or stdin
    -rules enable rules for wordlist mode
    -incremental[:MODE] incremental mode [using section MODE]
    -external:MODE external mode or word filter
    -stdout[:LENGTH] no cracking, just write words to stdout
    -restore[:FILE] restore an interrupted session [from FILE]
    -session:FILE set session file name to FILE
    -status[:FILE] print status of a session [from FILE]
    -makechars:FILE make a charset, FILE will be overwritten

    There are at least two tutorials on this site that give detailed instructions on not only how to use JTR, but how to extract the password hash. Do a search, give them a try, and come back with specific troubles.
