I've forgotten the password to a word .docx file I made 9 months ago, is there any chance I can get in without knowing it?

Brute forcing would be fine, since I don't think I would've used a long password for this, but I don't know how to automate that either. Any ideas?

I've done this before by uploading the file to google drive which stripped the password off. I remember viewing it no problem but saving it was a few more steps. This was several years ago though so... Good luck!

didnt work sadly. thanks for the recommendation though!

Too bad, they must have fixed that workaround. Good luck cracking the safe!
