If you own a password-protected PDF and want to remove the password permanently — so you can open, share, or edit it without entering a password every time — here is how to do it for free in your browser.
Go to pdfeditor.onl/unlock-pdf. No installation or account is required.
Click the upload area and select your encrypted PDF. You will be prompted to enter the current password to verify you are authorized to remove the protection.
Type the current PDF password and click Unlock. The tool decrypts the PDF locally in your browser and produces a new, unprotected version of the file.
Tip: The password is only used locally to decrypt the file — it is never sent to any server or stored anywhere.
Download your unlocked PDF. The new file has no password and can be opened freely in any PDF viewer.
No. Our tool requires you to enter the correct password to verify ownership. We do not support bypassing passwords on documents you do not own.
No. Only the encryption layer is removed. All text, images, and layout are identical to the original.
Yes — completely free at pdfeditor.onl/unlock-pdf with no account required.
