    1. Hi, I replied to you on Google+ but you haven't emailed me back. Have you used the executable in the latest release (0.4)? What happens?

      This program should allow you to retrieve information in encrypted Word and Excel files. It does not recover a password but removes encryption. It does not affect other passwords in the document (such as for editing the document), which are easy to circumvent (you can probably just copy and paste the whole document, or failing that I expect that workarounds can easily be found with searching the Web).

  3. Hi Gavin,

    Apologies for the very late post! I have been trying to use the windows executable file (not very knowledgeable on compiling etc.) but the program opens command prompt and then instantly closes.

    Is there any chance you could help?

  4. You need to open the command prompt first and run the program by typing in the command name followed by the arguments; it sounds like you are just double-clicking the icon for the executable file in the graphical file browser.
