How to use PDF Password Remover
- Choose your PDFPress Choose a PDF file or drop the PDF into the box. It is checked on your device and not uploaded.
- Type the passwordIf the PDF needs a password to open, type it. A PDF that opens freely but is restricted needs none.
- Save the unlocked copyPress Remove the password. The copy downloads and opens anywhere; your original is not changed.
Type the password once and the saved copy opens with none, in any reader and on any device. PDFs that open freely but refuse printing or copying are freed without a password. The work is done by a program running inside your browser, so the file and the password never leave your device.
How it works
PDF Password Remover is a web page that does its work on your own device. The file you choose is opened by your browser, changed there and saved from there; it is never sent to a server, so there is no copy of it anywhere to delete, no queue and no waiting for an upload. Most online tools of this kind send your file to their servers and work on it there, and many keep it for a while. This one does not. There is no account, no watermark and no limit on how often you use it, and the result downloads the moment it is ready.
Bank statements and salary slips
Banks and employers lock these PDFs with a password made from your details, such as your date of birth or customer number, which is a nuisance when you need to attach them to an application. Unlock them once here and keep the open copies somewhere private.
