Frequently Asked Questions
Can this crack a PDF I don't have the password for?
No. You must know the password. The tool removes protection from documents you can already open.
Is my password uploaded?
No. Decryption is performed entirely in your browser; nothing is sent to a server.
Why would I remove a password?
So you don't have to type it every time, or to re-share the document with people who should have open access.
