Few days ago, I was in the same situation where I forgot the password to one of my previous clients transaction details. The information was stored in an Excel file and had no option other than to Google it and luckily I came across an excel password recovery article which provided me information on how to do it.
How I recovered my Microsoft Excel password.
1)Download the office password recovery tool from this link.
2)Install the application with the default settings.
3)Run the application and launch the recovery wizard.
4)Wizard provides you two options,either you can decrypt the excel file entirely or display the original password.
5)The first option is the fastest and it strips all the password protection from the document.While the second method just finds the original password of the excel file.
