Try and remember the password, check to see if you have written it down somewhere.

We do not help with removing passwords as it's against our site's Terms of Use

Extract below:

 

"Due to the nature of online help we are not able to verify ownership, and will not be able to help bypass or recover any user passwords, cd keys, license codes, serial numbers, etc."

Hi tachzink and welcome to G2G!

 

As we can not verify that the file belongs to you I don't think we can help.

Hi tachzink,

 

As I suspected our terms of use do not allow for us to help bypass or recover passwords.  Please see our terms of use.

Although direct help with password protected PDF file is not allowed, you can help yourself by searching online. Lots of help and methods available. Possibly the Adobe forums.

Maybe Google can help you.
 

We are not allowed to provide a direct solution to you on this site as stated many times. Did you not look online for solutions by using such keywords as "how to remove pdf password" or videos to remove pdf passwords?

Open your protected PDF file in chrome and press ctrl+p and select print as pdf.

Now save PDF file without the password and you will be able to unlock it.
