ZIP Password Unlocker is a powerful program for Windows that gives you the means to recover lost or forgotten passwords for ZIP archives. Due to the fact that it supports containers created with any app, you are able to get back your items straight away, regardless of the size or the number of files and folders it contains.
Brief review
The software solution relies on advanced SSE technology and a unique search algorithm to recover the passwords. This means you can enjoy a high speed when it comes to restoring all kinds of security phrases for your archives.
The main window has a streamlined layout that displays only two options, namely ZIP Password Recovery and Search Encrypted Files. The first feature helps you to open a new archive and recover the password. There are three different attack types to choose from:
- brute-force attack;
- brute-force with mask attack;
- dictionary attack.
Recover ZIP passwords
After selecting the preferred method, all you need to do is press the Start button. The utility will automatically process your archive and once the password is extracted, a small window will appear from which you can copy the combination.
It is necessary to mention one of the drawbacks of this tool, its inability to recover passwords from multiple ZIP archives at the same time. Thus, you have to perform the same action for each container you want to get access to. To unlock RAR archives, you may try another program called Winrar Unlock.
