If you do not want anyone to access or modify your important documents, you can simply protect them with a password. You can either use standard encryption features, that come with some applications, or you can use a third party software. A complex password offers a strong protection, but if you lose or forget that password, it will be next to impossible to access your own files. With Passcovery Suite, you can recover a password from MS Office documents, ZIP or RAR archives, TrueCrypt volumes, Apple iOS and much more. It uses strong attack features to break a file and recover its password.

The application's setup file is over 10 Mb and you can install it swiftly. If you buy the product, you can activate it during the initial setup process or you can opt for its demo version. Passcovery Suite will adapt to your resources, so the system requirements are nothing to be concerned about.

Information about the software and its capabilities is displayed directly on the user interface. This can be very useful, especially if you are not sure what types of files are supported. After loading a password protected file, a wizard will launch automatically. It will display various details, such as the used protection, the estimated recovery speed and more.

The wizard features only one set of options, which involve selecting an attack type. You can choose a scenario for default MS Office files, RAR or ZIP archives and others. Alternatively, you can opt for a brute force attack, with or without an extended mask or a dictionary based attack. This is all you need to do before recovering a password.

Depending on the loaded file and the strength of its protection, the process may take some time. Passcovery Suite is optimized to work with various processors, regardless if it comes from Intel or AMD. It will determine what type of CPU is installed on your computer and it will adjust itself automatically, for maximum efficiency. Your video card may give the software a speed boost as well. When it is possible, the application will use GPU calculations. It will perform well on AMD or NVIDIA cards.

Pros

Passcovery Suite can recover lost passwords, using a variety of attacks. The application makes smart use of your computer's resources. It will adapt to your processor and video card for maximum efficiency. Using and configuring the software is very easy, thanks to its user friendly interface.

Cons

A few customization options for the interface would have been welcomed. Passcovery Suite provides a powerful and efficient solution for recovering lost passwords. It works with various types of files and it is very easy to use.
