A cleaned, WPA2-ready version of the Ultimate2016 wordlist, addressing issues #1 and #4.

What was done

Starting from the full Ultimate2016 set (all letter files combined), this release:

  • Removed duplicates — 416,032 exact dupes
  • Removed entries shorter than 8 characters — invalid for WPA2 (issue #1)
  • Removed entries longer than 63 characters — strips the scraping/HTML artifacts (issue #4); WPA2 passphrases are 8–63 chars
  • Removed lines with non-printable characters

Result

Lines
Original (combined) 10,542,143
Cleaned 7,208,204

Every remaining entry is a printable, 8–63 character candidate valid for a WPA2 dictionary attack.
