Frequently asked questions

Can this crack a password I don’t know?

No — and that’s deliberate. This tool is for documents you own or are authorised to unlock: it removes protection using the correct password you type in. The wrong password simply fails.

Is the password sent anywhere?

No. Decryption runs as WebAssembly in your browser — the file and the password both stay on your device.

Privacy

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your file is processed on your device and is not uploaded to a server.
