Key to Recover the password of Excel Spreadsheet


Have you ever handed a Excel spreadsheet which is password protected and the password is not known to you? It becomes very easy for you to unprotect the file when the password is known to you. Go to the following options: Tools >Protection >Unprotect Workbook.

Of-course, the person who gave you the file not necessary would know the password. Because it could happen that file is of some other person, who has just left in between with password-protection enabled features. And that file creates a hassle to you.

While searching on internet will find several password recovery utility which allows to recover the password of Excel workbook. Some are available for free download and some costs money. Some require you to send the file to them which is actually not a good idea if your file contains confidential data.

So, I did try a utility that is Stellar Phoenix Excel Password Recovery which was provided on website with some useful information. Anyways it will take few minutes to recover the password. Now I have a working password! Fantastic.

If you came across this kind of situation, I highly recommend you to go for this tool to reset the lost password. This basically works on windows operating system which is compatible with Windows 7, Vista, Server 2003, XP, and 2000 and supports MS Excel 2007, 2003, 2002, and 2000.
