What XLockFree Removes

  • Sheet Protection Unlocks cell editing, row & column management, and all worksheet-level restrictions — no password needed
  • Workbook Structure Lock Restores ability to add, delete, move, rename, and hide sheets across the entire workbook
  • VBA Project Password Strips the password from macro code in .xlsm files so you can view and edit your own VBA scripts
  • File Open Password Decrypts AES-256 encrypted files using the password you provide, then saves without any encryption
  • Write Reservation Removes "reserved by author" prompts that block write access when opening shared workbooks

Responsible Use Policy

XLockFree is built to help you recover access to Excel files you own or are explicitly authorized to access — such as documents you created, files shared with you by your organization, or workbooks you are responsible for maintaining.

This tool is intended to help you protect your valuable data by ensuring you are never permanently locked out of your own work. It must not be used to access files belonging to others without permission, bypass security on confidential third-party documents, or circumvent any controls you are not authorized to remove. By using XLockFree, you confirm that you have lawful authorization to modify every file you submit.
