Frequently Asked Questions
How do I unlock a PDF?
Upload the PDF. If it only has restrictions, it unlocks automatically. If it is password-protected, enter the password you set to decrypt it.
Does it work for password-protected files?
Yes, as long as you know the password. Enter it and the saved copy will open without a password.
Is it legal to unlock a PDF?
Unlocking works on documents you own or have permission to use — such as your own invoice, report, or form.
Is unlocking a PDF free?
Yes. It is completely free with no watermarks, no sign-up, and no file size limitations.
Are my PDFs uploaded?
No. Decryption happens entirely in your browser. Your file and password never leave your device.
