Frequently asked questions

Does unlocking a PDF require an account?

No — removing a password from your own PDF is free and works without an account or e-mail address.

Is entering my PDF password here safe?

Yes. The password is used only to open the file during processing and is never stored, and the files themselves are deleted automatically within 2 hours.

Do I need the password to unlock the PDF?

Yes. The tool removes the password from a PDF you can already open, so you must enter the current password once — it cannot crack or bypass a password you don't know.
