Unprotecting a workbook

I am trying to unprotect a workbook that I protected two years ago. Of course, the password has been lost to the mists of time and memory. Now I need to unprotect it so that it can be updated. Is there any way at all to unprotect the workbook without the password? 

thank you

Bill

    Hi Bill,

     

    Unfortunately, there is no official way to recover the password!

     

     

    But if you search online, you may find some third-party tools that may solve the problem, but these tools are not guaranteed!

     

    Regards
