How it works?
Encryption methods used for "password to open" protection in MS Excel 2007 / 2010 are based on industry strong encryption algorithms and password recovery or decryption cannot be guaranteed in contrast to prior MS Excel versions. Moreover due to iterative methods used in password verification recovery speed is limited.
In order to recover this type of passwords, candidates have to be created based on dictionary, mask or sequentially based on a charset and length selected. Excel Password allows you to try all these options with a number of additional modifications including unique patent pending keyboard layouts aware recovery technique.
We did our best to enhance this tool performance as well as the recovery speed with some advanced patent pending methods and it found to be the fastest tool for MS Excel "password to open" recovery. There is still a chance for some systems to not perform as fast as expected, but you may remain confident that our tool will match any of competitive tools if they are found to be faster at your system. Just let us know.
