About Unlock PDF

Password prompts get in the way once a document is safely on your own device. Unlock it once and keep an unprotected copy for everyday use — printing, copying quotes or merging it with other files all work again.

Frequently asked questions

Can it crack a password I do not know?
No. You need the password to open the file; this tool removes it so you do not have to type it every time.
The file opens but will not print — can that be fixed?
Yes. Owner-only restrictions (no print, no copy) are removed even without a password; just leave the field blank.
Is this legal?
Removing protection from your own documents is fine. Do not use it on files you are not authorised to change.
