However, Crackit is still worth a try if your file is within Crackit's capabilities.

That Excel file is in XSL file format, then download Crackit above, just unzip it and do not need to install this tool.
Step 2: Open Crackit under Admin rights by selecting Run as Administrator.
Step 3: The Crackit interface appears, here there are only 4 protocols that this tool supports. If you do not remember what password you set, the best way is to choose protocol number 3 or 4 and then click Browse.
