I have trouble opening an encrypted docx file (Word 2007 under Windows XP). The file seems to be corrupted: after entering the (correct) password, i get the message "word experienced an error trying to open this file". The password is correct (entering the wrong password results in a different message).
The "recover text from any file" option from Word isn't any help. It opens the file, but seems to ignore the encryption: the resulting document has a readable header with some info on the encryption used, but the rest of the document is filled with random characters. I would be grateful for any suggestions on how to recover the contents of the file.
Kind regards
Jos
