Click to upload or drop a password-protected PDF
One PDF — unlocked in your browser, never uploadedAbout this tool
This free Unlock PDF tool removes the open password from a PDF, so it opens without asking for one. Enter the password you already use to open the file, and download an unlocked copy.
It runs entirely in your browser — the PDF and your password are never uploaded, so your document stays private.
Important — you must know the password
This tool removes a password you know so you don't have to type it every time you open the file. It does not crack, guess or bypass an unknown password — you need to be able to open the PDF yourself first. That keeps it honest and legal: it's for your own protected files.
