RAR Password Remover - Easily Remove Encrypted RAR File Password

WinRAR does not give users the option to change or remove a password once one has already been applied to a RAR archive. The user must create a new RAR archive without a password. But the precondition is that users have the password to extract encrypted RAR file. Otherwise, they would not create new RAR archive with the same files saved in encrypted RAR file.

Now this article would intend to introduce how to remove encrypted RAR file password with RAR password remover after RAR password forgot or lost.

Step 1: Prepare RAR password remover tool.


One of the RAR password remover tools I have ever used is RAR Password Genius. It helps to recover forgotten RAR password safely and effectively with a computer or in Local Area Network. If you have more than one available computer, you can select its Professional edition for faster RAR password recovery in LAN. If not, choose its Standard edition please to recover RAR password with four powerful password attack types.

Install and run RAR Password Genius Professional now on computer, because Professional edition also works on one computer to recover RAR password. This feature is the same as Standard edition.
