Free software to remove PDF restrictions.

Have you ever been locked out of a PDF file? It can be a frustrating and time-consuming experience, but fear not, because Free PDF Unlocker is here to save the day.

With this intuitive application, you can unlock encrypted PDF files by specifying the correct password, or apply force and try to decrypt the PDFs if you've misplaced or forgotten the secret code. It's the ultimate solution for anyone who needs to recover important data instead of deleting the files forever.

But before you jump in headfirst, there are a few things you need to know. First and foremost, Free PDF Unlocker requires .NET Framework to work, so make sure you have it installed on your PC before launching the program. Once you've got that covered, you'll be greeted by a user-friendly interface that's split into two panes: one for unlocking PDFs and one for configuring settings.

From there, the possibilities are endless. You can add multiple PDFs to the task list if you want the tool to process all of them at the same time. If you already know the password and only want to lift it from the protected documents, simply enter it and tell the tool where you want to save the new, unprotected files.

But what if you don't know the password? That's where things get interesting. Free PDF Unlocker offers two decryption modes: dictionary and brute force. In dictionary mode, you can load an existing text document to try all words or create a new text file and enter what you think could be the correct password. And in brute force mode, you can set the exact length or minimum and maximum number of characters, choose the type of characters between letters (both upper and lower case), numbers, letters and numbers, or a custom set. The options are endless!

It's worth noting that when the application successfully decrypts a PDF document, it doesn't reveal the password. But let's be real, who cares about the password when you've got all the information you need?

To sum it up, Free PDF Unlocker is a simple and straightforward PDF decryptor that offers easy-to-understand options for helping you recover sensitive information. The time it takes to finish a task depends on the password's complexity and settings applied. So what are you waiting for? Give it a try and unlock the power of your PDFs today!
