How SheetFix Works

Recover access to your data securely.

Instant Recovery

We strip the internal XML that locks your sheets and workbook structure, so you can edit cells and add, delete, or unhide sheets again.

Broad Compatibility

Works with standard .XLSX files and macro-enabled .XLSM files. Binary .XLSB files must be re-saved as .XLSX or .XLSM first.

Short-Lived Files

Files are processed in a private temporary folder, deleted as soon as you download the result, and automatically wiped after 15 minutes if never downloaded. See our privacy page.

Document Passwords vs Worksheet Passwords: This tool only removes the password required to *edit* a sheet. If your Excel file requires a password to *open* the file initially (encrypted document password), you must remove that locally before using this tool.
