Remove password Windows 2007 document

I have a file created by someone else and I'm unable to remove or change the password.  I've tried everything!  When I go to prepare - encrypt the Document, the field is empty, so I can't remove the password.  I tried to save it as a different file types, but which does not work either.  The document is more than 250 pages with lots of links and fitness to re-create is not realistic.  Help, please!

Two options:

  • Create a copy that has no password.

    1. Open the protected file.
    2. Highlight everything (press Ctrl + A).
    3. Copy (Ctrl-C)
    4. Open a new empty file.
    5. Paste (Ctrl-V)
    6. Save this new copy.
  • Save a new copy without password
  1. Open the protected file.
  2. File/save as (or press F12)
  3. Give it a new name.
  4. Before clicking on save, choose Tools > General Options and remove the passwords in mailboxes.
  5. Click Save.

    Is what kind of material? Word? Excel? etc?

    If so, you have installed Windows 7 as an upgrade or properly? If you
    installed cleanly, you also install Word, Excel, etc. (Microsoft
    Office)?

    If you expect Windows 7 with Office, you should know that * no. * version of
    Windows has never developed the office (although some sellers have delivered Office
    with some computers they sold).

  • How can I remove password from the documents that I have permission to post?

    My insurance company sent me the documents & Billing notice requiring that enter a password to view.  Of course, I know the password, but it takes a long time to use it every time.  Is there a way to remove the requirement of password on the DC drive for documents sent to me?

    Hi daltxjim,

    If you know the password and have access to Acrobat, then you should be able to remove the password of security. Just choose file > properties after you open the PDF file, then click on the Security tab in the Properties dialog box to change the security settings. Unfortunately, this is not something you can do in Reader.

    Best,

  • I opened a word from Windows Mail document, changed using Word 2007, you press on save and close the document. Now I can not find where he saved.

    original title: Windows Mail ate my file

    I opened a word from Windows Mail document, changed using Word 2007, you press on save and close the document.  Now I can not find where he saved.  I tried the search function in Vista, but it can not find the file either.  I tried to re - open the file in the email, but I just get the original version.  Can anyone suggest where it might be?

    Thank you very much

    Once you open a Word attachment in an email, you must save it to your HARD drive until you make changes. If you do not, the changes are lost, but the original attachment is still with the e-mail.

    Scott, welcome to the forum.

    When a help request, you must always include the brand / model of the computer or the monitor. This information is necessary for us to review the specifications for them.

    Here's a guide that will help you automatically connect using Win 7.  If you use another OS, you can find a guide for it.  This works very well if you are the only user.  I use this method whenever I have reinstall my OS.

  • REMOVED FROM WINDOWS

    Looks like they have removed Microsoft Office.

    As you say it is preinstalled with Vista, it would have been a trial version of Office in any manner; unless you paid for Office separately.

    You will need to contact the computer manufacturer on this subject.

    Or save your data, and then do a Vista recovery to factory settings:

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  • I have windows 7 which is corrupt. How remove, uninstall Windows 7 so I can have a clean disk so I can install again.

    I have windows 7 which is corrupt.  How remove, uninstall Windows 7 so I can have a clean disk so I can install again?  When I try now I get the message that it is already installed and does not go further.

    Windows 7 came preloaded on your computer?

    If so, try the following:

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is available for the most popular brands

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    -------------------------

    If Windows 7 is not preinstalled on your computer.

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

    Hello new booskap42300,

    I will say that HP has a document on what call you off-brand inks. I can fill the ink in my HP ink cartridge?

    I'm glad to hear that you buy another printer, even though I'm sad to see your printer being set up for retirement. Remember the HP printers recycled for more information on what you can go to the product return and recycling page or call HP Technical Support for the trading of options.

    I still want to thank you for display on the HP Forums. Be sure to mark my post as solution provided if you think that I have solved your problem. Have a great day!
