Excel Password Remove

Locked

Hi Mates. There’s this person who asks me if it is possible to remove the forgotten password off his locked excel (.xls) file. I try a program “Ultimate Zip Cracker” but it takes ages to process file and I finally give up and stopped it. Can anybody tell me a quicker way to reset or remove an Excel.xls file password?

However, if you want help in cracking a password, please post it in some other forum as that type of question will no be answered in this community.

A) Open document > Select edit menu > choose select all > then choose copy from edit menu.
Open new document > edit menu> paste.
Select tools menu> choose options> window opens with options. Select form different tabs the edit tab> make sure that al desired boxes are selected.
Select save tab>choose and mark box>ask about properties
accept or Apply options and close.
Save new document different name. When saving it should ask if you want to save properties> choose not save. Maybe it asks if you want to modify properties> choose yes> select box archive amongst read only, hidden or archive.
If this does not work.

B)There are many 3rd party utilities which claim to reset forgotten word password:
The program that I recommend is the Excel Password Recovery 5.0 It recovers/removes the “Password to Open” and “Password to Edit” for you to view and edit the document freely. http://www.recoverlostpassword.com/products/excelpasswordrecovery.html
