Protect or Unlock Word
Lock a Word file with a password, or unlock one you know.
Files are processed for your request only — we do not keep a permanent public library of your uploads. Always open the downloaded file once before you send it.
Free up to 100 MB on every tool (including compress). Files over 100 MB need Premium (up to 500 MB) — locked until payment is enabled.
Back to Word Conversion toolsProtect encrypts the Word file so it will not open without the password (same idea as PDF protect). Unlock decrypts it again.
