Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This easy-to-use tool quickly powers through select Excel passwords, freeing password-protected documents, although it disables rather than recovers them. Excel Password Recovery Master's simple user-friendly interface uses a single user-enabled field. There isn't much to learn in order to operate this app.
Operating Excel Password Recovery Master takes just a few moments. Users select the password-protected Excel file using the built-in file browse tool. In select cases the program immediately removes Write, Workbook, Shared Workbook, and Worksheet passwords. If the file has an Open password, the app polls the publisher's server for help decrypting and defeating the password. The work is behind-the-scenes and is very quick.
Excel Password Recovery Master doesn't report the found password, but it does allow you to open password-protected files. This tool is quick and works well. Novices to expert users should find it useful in the event of a lost Excel password.
