In the documentation it says that the function is in winapi::um::wincrypt::CryptDecrypt
but when I install the crate and bring it in my project everything works fine until I try to call the function where I get the following error message:
error[E0433]: failed to resolve. Could not find `wincrypt` in `um`
--> src\main.rs:68:39

68 | let decrypted_password = winapi::um::wincrypt::CryptDecrypt(password);
| ^^^^^^^^ Could not find `wincrypt` in `um`
My goal is to decrypt passwords from the "Local Data" file on my computer where Chrome stores passwords. I am using the Windows win32crypt
API binding called winapi
in Rust. I am trying to accomplish something similar to chromepass
but in Rust.
From the crate-level documentation:
Frequently asked questions
Why am I getting errors about unresolved imports?
Each module is gated on a feature flag, so you must enable the appropriate feature to gain access to those items. For example, if you want to use something from
winapi::um::winuser
you must enable thewinuser
feature.
In this case, you need to add wincrypt
:
[target.'cfg(windows)'.dependencies]
winapi = { version = "0.3", features = ["wincrypt"] }
