Remove PDF password vs unlock
Remove PDF password and Unlock PDF both decrypt with the password you already use in a reader. For Aadhaar, passbook, and Form 16 files, open the matching pages in Sign & Secure.
What you get
Mobile first
Large tap targets and a one-column upload on phones.
Auto-delete in 1 hour
Files sit outside the web root and are purged on a schedule.
No watermark
The download is your file. We do not stamp pages unless you asked for a watermark tool.
Known-password unlock only
Unlock decrypts with the password you type. We do not crack Aadhaar, passbooks, or bank files.
Hostinger-ready
Converters and page tools run in PHP on shared hosting. No VPS required for the tools we publish.
Then compress
After convert or unlock, hit an exact KB cap for SSC, UPSC, and job portals.
Frequently asked questions
Can you remove the password from this PDF without the password?
No. Type the password you already use to open the file. We do not brute-force, skip, or “hack” PDF encryption.
What password do Indian e-documents usually use?
e-Aadhaar is typically the first four letters of your name in CAPITALS plus year of birth (YYYY). Bank, CAMS, EPF, and Form 16 passwords are set by that issuer — often PAN, DOB (DDMMYYYY), or an account number. Check the SMS/email that came with the PDF.
Is it safe to upload my file here?
Uploads are stored outside the public web root, addressed by unguessable names, and deleted automatically after one hour. Download links expire so a leaked URL stops working.
Will this work on Hostinger shared hosting?
Yes for older Standard-security PDFs (common for many bank and government downloads). Newer AES-256 files may need a desktop unlocker if PHP cannot decrypt them — we never crack passwords.
Is unlocking my own file legal?
Decrypting a PDF you own with its known password is the normal way to print or merge it. Do not upload files you are not allowed to open.
