Questions About Recovering PowerPoint Passwords

Which PowerPoint files does the software open?

How long a password can the software recover?
Passwords of 15 characters or fewer work. Shorter length ranges and smaller character sets finish sooner.
What is the difference between brute force and mask attack?

Yes. Multilingual passwords, dots and special characters work in the search.
Does the software show how long the recovery will take?
Yes. You see a progress bar and an estimated recovery time.

Yes on Windows. Install Microsoft PowerPoint before you start the recovery.
