Why Bytefuse
Everything you get with Remove Password
Fast, faithful to your document, and ready for real work — in the browser or over the API.
Open without prompts
Strip the password from a file you own so it opens instantly instead of asking every single time.
Only files you can open
You must provide the current password, so the tool only ever unlocks documents you're already allowed to access.
Private by design
Your file and password travel over an encrypted connection, are used only for this request, and are deleted within an hour.
Automate it
Remove passwords in bulk from your own code with a single REST call — SDKs and docs included.
