6 Best Free ZIP Password Unlocker Software For Windows

Here is a list of Best Free ZIP Password Unlocker Software for Windows. You can recover password of locked ZIP files, using different methods of the listed software. You can use these software to recover ZIP files, RAR files, archive files, and other files as well. Generally, the most used methods used in these ZIP password unlocker software are Dictionary method and Brute-Force Attack method.

You can use both methods depending upon situation. If you remember password length and if it had numbers and upper cases, you can use Brute-Force attack. If you don’t know anything about the password, but remember that it is a standard word, Dictionary method can be used to unlock ZIP password. There are other methods as well, that these software to recover ZIP password provide. Read the article and you will get to know about them. You will also know how to unlock ZIP files using these software.

Note: Most of these software are paid, but they do have free trial or demo versions that you can use. However, all of them come with a limitation that they show only first few characters of the recovered password. So, if the password that you are trying to recover is pretty small (5 characters or less), then these software will be definitely useful. However, if the password is longer than that, then you will be able to see only the first few characters, and take a guess at the remaining part of the password.

If you know a significant part of your password, like the first three letters, you can use masking option available in some of these software. This will display the full recovered password, if your password is 5-6 characters long.
