How to unlock word documents


Either you can check out "Word Password Recovery Master" or you can try out other possible solutions mentioned there.

I used to get the error message saying “This modification is not allowed because the document is locked” when i used to try modifying a document in Word 2007 or in Word 2003.I had tried out a number of workarounds but the only solution that i found helpful was "MS Word Password Recovery 5.0". If you want then you can try it out. If your document is locked with some password then MS Word Password Recovery will crack it out.

Hope that helps.
