Убрать защиту с word онлайн

The ability to password protect an MS Word document is a very useful feature. It helps to keep your documents private or manage shared access with several authorized users. However, if you lose the password, you will be left with a document you can’t edit at all. This article will show you how to remove the Word password if you have lost or forgot it.

If you can’t edit the document, use Method 1, 2 or 3 to remove protection. If you can’t open your document without password, use Method 4 or Method 5.
