Free password recovery software for ZIP files

Free ZIP Password Recovery is a tool that can help users regain access to their password-encrypted ZIP files. In these days of increased security, it is essential to ensure sensitive files are adequately protected; however, a secure password can work just as easily against those with rightful access if it's lost. This is where this free app proves useful.

How it Works

Most passwords use a combination of letters, numbers and characters to generate; the longer and more complex the combination, the more secure the password. In the event of a lost password, trying to guess the combination is an impossible task. Free ZIP Password Recovery uses a 'brute force' attack to regain the password; this involves trying different computer-generated combinations at high speed until the password is recovered. This program covers all types of ZIP files including ZIPX and WinZIP files, and it will restart the search at the same point after a crash. The simple interface allows users to set search parameters by entering anything they remember about the password such as length or characters. This free software has no limit on the length of the password.

Worth Downloading

Free ZIP Password Recovery isn't going to be appreciated until a password is lost; however, it is effective and easy to use, so it is worth downloading just in case. Searching will take time, depending on the length and complexity of the password, but the restart option ensures continuity.
