- The video demonstrates how to open a password protected read only PowerPoint slide show if you have forgotten the password, without any software for free and without the use of internet.
Just found this tutorial this morning and already saved my day! thanks brother!
Glad to help. Most welcome 😁
Thank you so much! This has saved me a lot of trouble! i am in an office and sometimes when managers transfer and leave files locked we cannot update our work to latest Instructions. Saved the day.
My pleasure to help ❤️
Why it says "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged." when I tried to open with WinRAR? I already rename the .pptx file to .zip
Its only for password protected read only file. Look at other comments. Pretty sure it's working
Works like a charm, Windows 10. Follow the steps exactly as he does it...it will work
Thanks for your acknowledgement ❤️❤️
Worked just fine for me, thanx. I would appreciate it even more if you could write it down as text. Also, some people may have problems understanding spoken English. Just write it down, please.
From the comments and feedback I think everyone got it and it's working for them. But thanks for the suggestion. Well one can even mute the video and follow along step by step and it will still work 😁
It really worked like a charm. Your help is very much appreciated. But again, you could make it even better. I tried muting the video. But I had to unmute it as some of your final steps are not clear from the video alone.
I will try to make a better one. Thanks
Does this only work for files that have passwords to protect them from modification/read only? Or does it also work for files that require a password to open them. I have a very old family powerpoint file that I just found, and it is password protected, to open it. Thus far, I can't make these steps work. thanks
Readonly...
Thank you so much ...The trick worked and ur way of explaining was very good. ❤️
Most welcome 😃
Thanks a ton! I was able to open my most treasured presentation.
That's great 😊
Please like the video to support my efforts 😃
thanks ma bro becasue ı passed the exam for you
Awesome video. To the point. A master at his craft!
Brother!!! You trick worked like a charm, saving two weeks of work. You da man!!! Keep up the good work. Thanks a lot
Thanks man. God bless ❤️

Thanks a lot ☺️
I was looking for such a solution for a long time, really appreciate your help....
Most welcome 😇
This was really helpful! It saved me so much trouble! Will it work with Word or Excel documents, too?
I didn't try with excell. But the code break is supposed to be the same. Glad to help ❤️
Getting stuck at the first step itself.
after converting the copy to .zip while opening it in winrar it says that "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged"
plz help...
Sorry. From the comment it's clear that if don't exactly as told it had to work...
@@TheTeachingDoc I found out that if the PPTX can be opened as 'read-only' and asks password for editing, only then will this trick work. But if the whole file is encrypted and it when it asks for a password to even view the presentation this will not work. It will say that the zip file is invalid or corrupted during the first step.
OK thanks for update ❤️
@@amithgopalakrishnan707 @Teaching Doc what to do in such cases?😢
@@TheTeachingDoc what to do in such cases when the whole file is encrypted? I am also stuck at it and forgotten my old files password
Thank you po. Such a GREAT HELP
😊😊
changing the file extension name I get this message when trying to open with winrar: "the archive is either in unknown format or damaged", I also tried just compressing it but then none of those extra files like the xml file will show in winrar
Shouldn't happen. Others have done it successfully
Thank soo mcuh
This was very helpfull. I forgot the password i set long time ago
Thank you very much. it is truly a life saver...May Lord Sri Krishna Bless You Always
Jai shree Krishna ❤️
thanks for the video. Like others i forgotten the password to open my file. I tried your way but couldnt find the word " modify" in the text editor window.. any suggestion please?
Sorry..no idea..
This is very helpful sir
Thanks a lot for sharing
Glad to help
YOU ARE A LIFESAVER SIR!
My pleasure. Keep helping others ☺️
I realize making a video doesn't make one the help desk, but when many are experiencing the same "corrupt file" problem, as I am, it seems the common answer is "everyone is is doing it fine, you must be doing something wrong". The process really only involves 6 steps (more if you count "closing files" as multiple steps), it's not rocket science, and actually seems like it should universally work, but MSoft might have changed something that this video doesn't capture? But I'm here for the condescending tone!
Do you have any suggestions how to overcome the problem ?
This video is ONLY for readonly password protected ppt which you need to modify by cracking...I am sure most users with fully protected ppt tries to use this method and fails which they will!
I have tried this on a MAC, but it does not work at the final stage when renaming the amended .zip file back to a .pptx file. Is this because MAC uses "Unzip One" rather than winrar?
Thought one of the best solutions I have ever seen for such a problem. But unfortunately, after renaming the file, it is not opening up by WinRar. It shows, "The archive is either unknown format or damaged". Please help me out.
My file's extension was PPS, and I could not open the file. Then I renamed the extension as ppt, then it showed me to enter the password or can open the read-only format. Then it opened up, but I was unable to edit it. Anyway, I followed the instruction, but unfortunately, it didn't work either.
This is not a solution for pps file. You have clicked wrong video with false expectations sir. Its for pptx files only. You can check all positive responses and then you will know this IS THE BEST SOLUTION. Problem is your problem is different than this. Sorry It didn't help you.
I have tried to open the file after renaming it zip but winrar didn't worked and showed notification which stated" the archive is either in unknown format or damaged"
Can you please help me in this regard.....
It's for read-only file..not fully password protected..it's working I have checked again.
Is there any chance that i can share it with you. So that you can try to open it ?
Thank you for taking the time to share this and help others!
Glad to help ❤️
I cant do it, It says that there is no word modify, did they uptade the problem?
Tried on mac and not yet found a way to make it work. I get far but the pptx file cant be opened in the end... I'll keep trying different things
its showing file is either damaged or of unknown formart after changing its extension..what should i do?
It means your file is unsupported. Nothing can be done.
unfortunately however, i get this message
"The presentation cannot be opened. Your antivirus program may prevent you from opening the presentation. To fix this problem, make sure your antivirus program is current and working correctly. If the problem persists and the presentation is from someone that you trust, turn off your antivirus program, and then try to open the presentation again. If you do this, make sure you turn on your antivirus program again after you open the presentation.
"
I do as it suggests but i still can't open my file :'( please help!
You must have done something wrongly. Look at the comments and realise that others have followed along the exact steps and made it work. Unfortunately I already have instructed all there in in the video. So watch it again and make it count 😁
Couldn't do :( It says "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged." Can you be of some help?
The specific editing with the text file and saving as administrator and opening in admin mode is very tricky. If you EXACTLY FOLLOW STEP BY STEP what I showed then you can solve it. Any step missing or done wrongly will lead to the error you said 😁
Keep trying.
@@TheTeachingDoc The very first step boss. Like after changing the file extension to .zip file. It isn't opening in win RAR and therefore that error.
I got the same error
Make sure you are using the latest version winrar and latest version of Ms office to use this..
@@TheTeachingDoc sir; I'd highly appreciate if I could send you the file over an email? Could you please unlock the ppt for me?
Converting to .zip doesn't work, is it because my .pptx is not having a read-only option and is just password protected?
No idea. U can read in the comments..others are doing pretty good following the exact steps as shown in this video :)
this will work only if you need a password to edit the file, however if you need a password to view the file then this method fails
Yes. That's correct...
Thank you so much dear! you saved my entire work.
Thanks a lot for appreciating my content🥰🥰
can we export pps to mp4 in read only mode ?
No
@@TheTeachingDoc 😭
that was smoothly well done thanks!!
My pleasure ❤️
I've used this method before but now I get an error when trying to open the newly changed zip file in winrar? Any ideas? Error says
C:\temp\4-2022.zip: The archive is either in unknown format or damaged
! No archives found
No idea.. This method is working absolutely fine. Confirmed 2 days back by other subscribers.
Hi, will this work also with highly protected PDF files?
No
Sadly, when I open winrar file, it says format is corrupted or damaged.
Sorry to hear that..however it will only act when the file is read only and you can open it but cannot edit...
@@TheTeachingDoc looks like I lost my 1 month hard working file :c
No backup??
It works. Good job, pal.
Most welcome 😃
Great !! man 👍
A working, to the point and quite clever solution.
Thanks
Thanks a lot, this really helped and was quick, saved a lot of trouble.
😊🙏
Really helpful video... Subscribed 😊
Thanks 😊
Thank you very much for take time to share this 😃
❤️❤️
dear cant open showing file is unknown format or damaged
I have a old ppt , for which we kept password.. it's 7 years we are trying to open.. but this didn't worked for me
U can check the comments. Everyone is doing perfectly. So I think u missed some step...good luck
thanks man Works 100%
love from nepal
Glad to help man
I wish I could like this a million times
Many thanks for your kind words 😊
Oh, thanks a lot for this. You have saved me a lot of trouble
Glad to help. 😀
The Teaching Doc i forgot my view file password PPT in mac, what should i do?
Sorry...i am aware about windows only 😖
when I try to open the zip... file the message is:
Can not open file.... It does not appear to be a valid archive....
You should be able to do it.. As you can see the positive reaction in the comments many have done the exact way I have shown here :)
Does it matter that the original file was pps? Which I change to ppt?
Also now it says the archive is either unknown format or damaged
Dont work on the original file. Make a copy before this procedure and go forward. Pptx or ppt file. Not pps
@@TheTeachingDoc The original file that they sent me, is in pps. So maybe that is the reason I can not apply the procedure you recommend... I can change it in to ppt, because it is more convenient for me to make the lesson, but it is not an original ppt, and I dont have the original ppt. Correct me if I am wrong. Thank you!
Thankyou! It works perfectly
my pleasure ☺️
Omg you're a god damn saint, thank you! I'm subbing now
That's so nice of you 😊
Why i just find a file 'pptx' in the zip file? I dont see any other files
No idea
Can this work on ppsx or any method to unlock ppsx please need this badly.
Pptx. And open ppsx first by opening PowerPoint and then opening ppsx file using file open menu
thank you so much! works perfectly to this date
Would it work for pps ?
I hope you have tried and got the answer!?!
@@TheTeachingDoc no i didnt
I cant do this...😭
When i open the txt i dont have modify.. just some un alphabetic random symbol and it can not be changed its font.. what should i do 🙏😭
You have to open as administrator.
When i open notepad, search results for modify says no results!
Well it shouldn't happen. It should happen exactly as shown. Look at various positive responses. People have figured out by watching how I did it :)
It didnt work for me.... in the first step, it said that the "archive is damage" and didnt open in winRAR
That's bad...its working for most of those who have followed this trick. Check the comments!
@@TheTeachingDoc HI, But I get the same message !!!
Clearly something is wrong in your end..look at the other hundres of positive comments 😃
@@TheTeachingDoc Is there any chance that I send you the file to try on it ?
I will be thankful !
😅 sadly not
I am more of a guide can show you the path ...but you have to take the journey ❤️
My file is fully protected. not read only. What can I do in that case? Thank you in advance :)
I don't think I know that!
Maybe you need Tony Stark to solve that puzzle!
All the best in advance ☺️
Thank you. Greetings from Turkey.
Thanks again
nasıl çalıştırdın
ben yapınca arşiv bozuk diyor
Hey man can you please help me with a file ? i tried this method but i can't open it in Winrar so i can't do anything , Please reply
Nothing different than what's already been shown in the video and that's how everyone has done it in the comments 🤓
Thank you very much dude ... it worked
Most welcome ❤️
thank you sir for your time to share this really helpful
will only recover password to edit not password to open..
put that in the description please
Okay. thanks
Wat can i use instead of winrar, my Pc doesn't have that software
U can download it.
You are a life saver! Thanks man)))
Thanks a lot, in such cases I used to open the presentation with Libre Office (there it opens write-enabled without any passwords) and then save it back as pptx, but sometimes this resulted in some format/layout defects. Your way is defenitely better !
Thanks. You are right as well. There are many ways in getting this done..
Do you have any method to open the file ... I forgot the access password. Please!!!
No
@@TheTeachingDoc Tks... Bro
No problem ☺️
@@TheTeachingDoc I can't find the word modify
You have to otherwise you won't be able to solve the issue like others did in the comment section.
Wow, it actually worked!
Glad to help 😇
Pls tell for .ppt files there ppt folder is not shown some other files are there
Virus attack
@@TheTeachingDoc is it a software
No it's a malware
@@TheTeachingDoc I was asking the method of decrypting .ppt files as u told for .pptx files
Not possible in this method.
Please Now Upload another video which shows how to never unlock a PPT...some of us spent hours creating a unique presentation and some people will just use this video to modify that ppt slide and do unethical editing...so please upload another video which shows how to reverse engineer this process
Yes. It's very essential. Unethical editing should never be done. I have mentioned it very first in my video. However regarding this process it's much simple. You can find encrypt presentation option under ms PowerPoint settings.
@@TheTeachingDoc did u mean encrypt with password option?
this option will lock my presentation....i want others to open and use my ppt..but theywon't be able to edit it....by using this process of urs...please tell me how
@@abubakarsiddique7795 Save it as PDF
Haha
Tried but never worked.the files doesn't open after changing to zip. Somebody help me immediately
Well 500 people in the comments got it working...I am sure you are not following it correctly. By the way this is only for a read-only file which can be read but not edited. 😀
@@TheTeachingDoc Might be yeah but after changing to zip, it says unable to open. The archive is either in unknown format or damaged. This is what it shows.. 😪😪😪.
Ohho.. do you have winrar..
@@prasobhaary9996 same i have winrar and it doesn't work, I followed the steps exactly and can't even open it. Its not you the video just doesn't work
@@TheTeachingDoc Yes I have. But no idea why it didn't work. Its okay. I saw may positive responses here so might be somw other issues 😊
thank you. It happened to me all the time (forgotting my own password)
Same here...which led to this research on my part 🤣
It works! Thank you very much!
It worked for me! Thank you very much.
My pleasure. Keep in touch ❤️❤️
Works perfectly fine for me, thanks
It works! Thank you!
Thanks!!
The best tutorial
Glad to help. ❤️
You're a hero haha thanks for this!
Thank you so much, It is working.
Welcome
Thank you, it was very usefull.
Thanks bro soo much helped 👍
Most welcome ❤️
good work kept it up
Thanks for your support 🙂
what to do if it said "Cannot find modify"?
Then u must be doing it wrong. Read the comments.. Everyone is doing it as described..
yup. me too at first. close the notepad. and re-open it. press Ctrl + f (the bar should be squeeky clean, without the word modify before you type it in) then search, voila.
I can't find modify too
You have to otherwise you won't be able to solve the issue like others did in the comment section.
Excellent
Thanks ☺️
Unfortunately does not work with ppsx file.
Okay. I tried with pptx
it is showing that winrar is not able to open the zip file
Look at the comments. Everyone has been able to do it. All the best
but i tried
@@TheTeachingDoc i tried to open with 7-zip the window appeared but showing different folders like dataspaces and some files like encryptedpackage and encryptioninfo
Sorry bro. It should happen exactly how I have shown in this video..then u can try some other methods..keep researching then. Good luck.
İt is saying the same thing in mine too
I did everything you said
Done. Thanks, very simple
Most welcome 😁
this video is brilliant. THANK YOU.
Thanks a lot ☺️☺️
You are a saint and my savior
My pleasure ☺️
You are the best
Thanks!
Sir, for some reason this is not working for me. Can anyone help out?
Thx bro, you rescued me :p
Excellent!
It works perfectly!
Thanks a lot ❤️
Se ve excelente, pero cuando lo paso a zip o rar, me sale error al querer abrir.
