Forgotten OPEN password for Excel file???
I created a file in excel which contains my passwords etc. I have forgotten
the password that I set. I used this program on my BlackBerry to create the password. it generates random 8 key passwords. I am afraid that this file is trash. Is there a way to recover it, other than deep hypnosis :)??? I appreciate any help anyone can share. I guess next time I'll write it down and tape it under my keyboard (kidding of course). |

Forgotten OPEN password for Excel file???
Hi,
If it's password to open then its not as straightforward as it might otherwise be but an excellent tool can be found here http://www.lostpassword.com/ You will probably hate being reminded of this but just about the silliest place to keep passwords is on your PC, write them on a bit of paper. I keep mine between the pages of a dictionary by my desk in the P for passwords page. While this may seem a bit obvious I bet the next person to attempt to rob me doesn't stop to read the dictionary while doing it.
