Which Encrypted Object Problems Does SQL Decryptor Solve?
Find your situation below. SQL Decryptor shows the clear text of encrypted objects and the tool exports it on your terms.
- Procedure Text Stays HiddenSSMS refuses to show the script of an encrypted stored procedure.
- Source Script Went MissingOriginal CREATE scripts left with a former developer and only the encrypted copy remains.
- Server Move Hits a WallSSMS cannot script encrypted objects when you copy a database to a new server.
- Audit Asks for the CodeReviewers want the logic inside encrypted views and triggers.
- Trigger Logic Stays UnknownEncrypted triggers and DDL triggers change your data and nobody can explain how.

Attached Databases
Attach the database first. Detached databases do not open.
Live SQL Server
SQL Server must stay active on your computer and your login needs admin rights.
Two Login Modes
Sign in with Windows Authentication or SQL Server Authentication.
SQL Decryptor needs the Dedicated Admin Connection. Microsoft states that the DAC accepts only local clients by default and only sysadmin members can use it.
Microsoft also allows one DAC connection per instance. Close other admin sessions first. Its guide on the diagnostic connection for database administrators lists the switches and the remote setting.
