Free check, paid release

Free Office Password Check

The check is free: local analysis, a first eligibility pass, and a secure status page. If recovery works, full password or unlocked file release is one $34.99 payment.

1. Free analyzer

Detect whether the file is old Office 97-2003 or modern Office 2007+ before upload. That single check decides the whole recovery path.

2. Free Fast Check

Test common human-created passwords in modern Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files. This is the realistic free check for weak passwords.

3. Guaranteed legacy recovery

Some old .doc, .xls, and .ppt files are mathematically recoverable every time. On this satellite, they still use the same $34.99 release price after proof.

Proof-first paid recovery

Free Office check. $34.99 release only if recovery works.

Analysis is free. Recovery is version-aware — different Office versions get different treatment. You see proof before paying. Full password or unlocked file release is one clear payment.

What "free" means on this Office satellite

  • Free local format and encryption analysis
  • Free fast check for common passwords in modern Office files
  • Legacy 40-bit Office files are verified before payment
  • One paid release price: $34.99 if recovered

Best next steps

Start with the Office Analyzer. Then use the Office recovery guide, or jump straight to Legacy 40-bit Recovery if the file is old Office 97-2003.

How we differ

Desktop recovery tools are powerful but overkill for one forgotten password.

Passware, Elcomsoft, PassFab, Passper, and open-source hashcat are great if you have dedicated hardware and do this regularly. For a single file you need open right now, we focus on free diagnosis, proof before you pay, and one $34.99 release price if recovery works.

Diagnosis before upload

The browser classifies Office format and encryption before the free check starts.

Version-specific promises

Office 97-2003 can be treated differently from modern AES documents.

Proof before release

Status pages show masked proof or unlock preview before full payment.

One price

A single $34.99 release price avoids subscription traps and desktop-license regret.
