same goes in excel, anything with xlsx etc is a zip file...

Windows won't even let you try to do it.
Don't know what would happen on another operating system, but it looks like an encrypted ZIP file (which it is).

Enter the password as "a". If that doesn't work, then try "b". once you get to "z", you can then try "0", and eventually move on to "9". You can then try special characters. You'll also want to try uppercase letters. You can then use that collection of digits as the base for your number system. You can then essentially count up in that number system using the characters from the first iteration. Once you enter the correct password, you can remove it. Could take a while...

While he doing that, may be you can reread this :

|
|
|

Which part, in particular, should I focus on?
|
|
|
|

Really?
What if he is trying to access his file, but he forget the password ?
What if he downloaded the file from the Internet and it was locked ?
.
.
There are a million of reasons to help him.
On the other hand, What else Could be in that file ?
- a list of all gmail, facebook accounts ?
- or may be codeproject servers passwords ?
- or me be this file is belong to the CIA, for some Russian military, with nuclear launch codes ?
Another million of reasons to avoid, and help me.
And Now We care about the world of computer to be safe ?
Look around, on the Internet it's a corrupted world!,
Look at our self, Show me any computer user read the agreement of any software, and press cancel ?
And Yet We care ( Oh Noooooooo not the Word 2010 Password Noooo its wrong )
P.S:
There are dozen of applications down there just too do as he ask, only what he is ask! ,
More over if he was not sure about his file, he would not ask about it here in codeproject or at least he would not do it with his REAL NAME
this guy was asking innocent, hopefully get a manual solution for what he had ask,
As you know developers had there ways.

Then, he's a dumb coot beyond salvation.

This makes absolutely no sense.

People offer help without needing as many reasons, but asking 'help' to bypass encryption with a .bat file is just dense. Nobody can help.

Really? REAL NAME? That's a newly created account, and you already seem to know an awful lot about him, don't you?

It makes sense, but then it means that the file wasn't meant to be distributed on the internet.

Yes, it might be, but we don't know because he doesn't even bother to share us his story.
Nor did he show any cooperation to solve his own problem, like sharing the information on how far he has gotten so far; assuming that he even bothered to google for an answer before coming here, which I doubt.
But if you want to take up his cause, why haven't tried to find the solution yourself instead of trying to guild-trip others into helping him? I think you're both too lazy.

I post a solution, in previous post, But I think you're too lazy, to read it.
And Guess what People in codeproject vote my post down, How Ironic!
They don't want to help him.
I like to share information here in CodeProject but really some members attitude, force me to rethink of my strategy.
Sad but true....

I don't know a whole lot about Word - I use it, but I don't like it much. Specifically, I don't know if it imposes its own security on documents, or delegates that authority to Windows. If the latter, though, you might try copying it to a new folder which has Windows permissions set to "Everyone," then using the Properties menu for the folder, select the option to propagate permissions to all documents in the folder. Alternatively, you might format a USB device to FAT32, then store it there - FAT32 has weak or nearly non-existent security, and Windows NTFS permissions will not be preserved.
Of course, if Word implements its own security internally, you're probably screwed...

There's no such tool or .bat file which will magically "remove" password from a protected document.

It might be possible to print it, depending on the security settings. Right-click, choose "Print".
