Acerca de la herramienta Quitar contraseña de ZIP
Remove ZIP Password takes an archive you have the password for and gives you back an ordinary, unprotected ZIP with the same files and folder structure. Enter the current password, and the contents are extracted and repacked without encryption. This is for convenience, not for breaking into files: the correct password is required, and nothing is recovered, guessed or cracked. The usual reasons are practical ones - an archive from a supplier or bank that you have to unlock every single time you open it, a protected backup being moved into a system that cannot handle encrypted archives, or a file whose password was shared with a team and no longer needs to be typed by everyone. Both AES-256 and older ZipCrypto archives are supported.

How to remove a password from a ZIP file in 3 steps
Step 1: choose your password protected ZIP file, or drag it onto the upload box. Step 2: enter the current password. Step 3: press Remove Password and download the new ZIP.
The new archive has the same files and folder structure, but it opens without asking for a password. Your original file on your computer is not changed.
ZIP unlocker for AES-256 and ZipCrypto archives
ZIP files can be protected with two methods. ZipCrypto is the older method used by the built-in Windows tool. AES-256 is the modern, stronger method used by 7-Zip, WinRAR and most other archivers. This tool handles both.
If you are not sure which method your file uses, just try it. If the password is correct, the tool will open the archive.
If you forgot the ZIP password
Strong ZIP encryption has no backdoor, and this tool does not guess passwords. If you forgot it, check your password manager and browser saved passwords, search the email or message that contained the file, or ask the sender to share the password again.
Why remove a ZIP password
Archives you open regularly - statements or reports that arrive protected every month - become tedious when the password must be retyped each time.
Backup and document systems frequently cannot index or read encrypted archives, so an unprotected copy is needed for storage.
A password shared across a team is no longer meaningful protection; removing it and controlling access at the folder level is often the cleaner approach.
Preguntas frecuentes
Can this open a ZIP if I do not know the password?
No. The correct current password is required. This tool removes protection from an archive you can already open - it does not crack, guess or recover passwords, and there is no way for us to do so.
I have forgotten the password. What are my options?
Nothing here can help, and that is by design - strong ZIP encryption has no backdoor. Check your password manager, or ask whoever created the archive to send it again.
Does it work with AES-256 archives as well as older ones?
Yes. Both AES-encrypted archives and older ZipCrypto ones are supported.
Are my files and folder structure preserved?
Yes. Subfolders and file names are rebuilt exactly as they were; only the encryption is removed.
Can I set a new password instead of removing it?
Yes - remove the old password here, then run the result through the Protect ZIP tool with your new one.
Is my password stored anywhere?
No. It is used only to open the archive during processing and is never written to disk or included in any message. The uploaded file and the result are deleted automatically from temporary storage.
How do I unlock a password protected ZIP file online for free?
Upload the ZIP, type the current password, press Remove Password and download the unprotected copy. It works in any browser on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone, with no software to install and no signup.
Is this a ZIP password remover or a ZIP password cracker?
It is a password remover. You must know the correct password, and the tool uses it to open the archive and save a copy without encryption. It does not crack, guess or bypass passwords.
Why does it say the password is wrong?
Check for a trailing space, the wrong keyboard language, or Caps Lock. Passwords are case sensitive. If the password came by email or chat, copy and paste it instead of retyping it.
