I was going to let this slide, but since you're going to PM me and pester me about it, I'll rip into you instead.

Obviously.
I need to decrypt the following pass:
[16 byte hash]:ABdyv9GTo2g6B5bTUlMZVEBfCf7gCnKC
Great. What type of hash is it? You sort of need to know that to crack it, because otherwise there's a whole lot of options.
But I don't know what hash type that is,
Then you're not going to have much luck cracking it, are you? Where did you steal it from? You could have been useful & said that you got it from a BB of whatever type, but, instead, you just don't know, and won't provide enough useful information. So, no, I can't just magically look at it and tell you what type of hash it is. I can think of 3 or 4 likely options, but that's still quite useless for starting hash cracking.
or how to use the -h command so that it doesn't return unknown hash type and what line should I use for this? The pass will probably not be in any wordlist so it will have to be bruteforced...
You could actually have read the wiki and learned to use the tool. It is documented. Also, the source is freely available...
I'm using win7...
Clearly. Most Linux users have a clue.
Help would be greatly appreciated! Also if you can PM me the decrypted pass so I can continue with working on my site. But I'd love to learn how I can do this myself in case I forget stuff again
And where did you get the idea that I was in the business of cracking anyone's hashes for fun? I write tools, I don't engage in paid hash cracking, much less free hash cracking. Build your own system.
Further, I actually don't support posting hashes on my forum and asking for them to be cracked. I was going to leave it for a day or two and see if anyone else recognized the format, but because you felt the need to send me a PM to remind me to "look at your thread," I've scrubbed out the hash value.
Good luck.
