Unlock PDF — Free, Private, No Limits

No file size limit · Processed privately
Unlock PDF removes password protection from a PDF file that you own and have the correct password for, producing an unrestricted copy you can edit, print, or share freely. This is useful when an old password-protected file is no longer needed to be locked, or when you've forgotten which of your own PDFs still have a password applied. You'll need to enter the current password to confirm ownership; the file and password are processed entirely in your browser and never transmitted anywhere, keeping the operation completely private.
