Excel Password Recovery — Unprotect Sheet Online Help
Need to unprotect an Excel sheet online or open a workbook whose password you forgot? Tell us what is locked so we can assess the right protection in your .xls or .xlsx file.
We usually provide an initial update within 24 hours. Complex requests may take longer; recovery is not guaranteed.
Choose the right recovery path
| What you see | What it means | Your next step |
|---|---|---|
| Cells are visible but cannot be changed | Worksheet protection | If you know the sheet password, select Review > Unprotect Sheet and enter it. Otherwise ask the author or locate an earlier authorized copy. |
| You cannot add, move or rename sheet tabs | Workbook structure protection | This is different from cell protection. Use the workbook structure controls with the required password, or request an editable copy from the owner. |
| A password is required before any cells appear | File-opening password | Check your file-password records and source copies. A worksheet-unprotect operation cannot reset this separate password. |
Known password or forgotten password?
In the supported desktop application, open the affected sheet and choose Review > Unprotect Sheet. Enter the password if requested, make your permitted changes and save a separate copy.
Before uploading
Keep a separate original. Include the exact prompt, application version and any remembered password pattern. Success depends on the protection and the password; a file extension alone does not establish whether recovery is possible.
The checks in these guides do not require paying us. Our manual recovery service costs USD $19.99 per file only after success. Recovery is not guaranteed.

Is an Excel password remover online guaranteed to open my file?
No. Sheet restrictions and an encrypted file-opening password are different. Provide the exact message so we can review your case. Read-only or sharing-access notices may instead require permission from the owner.
