Frequently Asked Questions
Can you crack a password I forgot?
No. This tool is designed to legitimately remove encryption from a document you already own and have the password for. It does not perform password cracking or bypassing.
Does my file get uploaded to a server?
No! Just like our other tools, the decryption happens entirely locally in your web browser. Your document and your password are never uploaded anywhere, ensuring complete privacy.
