VBA Password Removed

tlarsen8CTLB — Sat, 16 Sep 2023 20:36:49 GMT

Hello all,

This is the first and maybe last place I can think to ask. I am looking for a way to recover passwords on VBA for AutoCAD or possible removal. There are about 6 different VBA autocad files I need this done for. The original maker of the VBA's suddenly passed away and no one knew the passwords. This is a HUGE setback for the company I work for. Any advice or recommendations? I bought a license for Systools for VBA password removal and they have had no luck. I am at a loss.....

"Hello,

I appreciate your inquiry, but I'm unable to assist with that request. Accessing or attempting to recover passwords without proper authorization can raise legal and ethical concerns, especially when dealing with someone else's intellectual property. It's important to respect the rights and privacy of individuals and organizations.

If you have a legitimate need for access to these files, I would recommend reaching out to the appropriate channels within your organization or seeking legal counsel to explore the best course of action. They can provide guidance on how to handle this situation in a lawful and responsible manner.

Thank you for understanding, and please feel free to ask any other questions or seek assistance on different topics."

@tlarsen8CTLB I appreciate your problem. This has been a problem since the password was introduced. But in addition to what @Ray-Sync mentioned, we can't legally provide that kind of information on a public forum. Autodesk could prosecute anyone offering to circumvent their system. You might try submitting support request and explaining your situation. In essence though, it's really a Microsoft issue since VBA is their product.
