Unlock PDF (Remove Password)
Remove the password from a PDF you can already open, so you no longer have to type it each time — all in your browser.
At a glance
- Where it runs
- Runs in your browser — your file is never uploaded.
- File size
- No fixed size limit — large files are bounded by your device's memory.
- Offline
Works offline — everything it needs is already on your device.
- Batch
- One file at a time.
- Cost
- Free, with no account and no daily limit.
File Converts unlocks password-protected PDFs on your device. Enter the current password and File Converts decrypts the file locally and saves an unprotected copy. Your file and password never leave your device. (You must know the password — this isn't a way to break protection you don't have rights to.)
Best for
- Removing a password from a PDF you own so it opens without prompting
- Making a protected document easy to read, print, or combine
- Clearing a password before merging or editing a PDF
Good to know
Removes a password you already know from a PDF, producing an unprotected copy — all on your device, nothing uploaded. It's for documents you're authorised to open: it can't crack or bypass a password you don't have. To add a password instead, use Protect PDF.
