How to unprotect Excel sheet if forgot the password
I found this post from search engine and tried a couple of answers shared by others in this thread. However,
most of them were not working. Fortunately, I recovered the password successfully thanks to the reply made

P.S. for strong open password, you have to wait sometime to finally retrieve the password and unprotect the
sheet afterwards.
I successfully saved my Excel document to Google Sheets, which removed the worksheet protection. Then, I saved it back as an Excel file on my desktop.
How were you able to save it google sheets if you couldn't open the document?
The protection was just for a sheet rather than the whole document. I have the same issue, the whole document is passworded.
I'd like to think it's not possible to undo it, otherwise, what's the point? But I'll read on .. .
