How to deactivate the 'read-only mode' of PPT without a password?

Question: How to protect PPT from random editing? Brief description: PPT provides the function of setting "read-only mode". By adding a password, you can protect the file from being opened and edited at will. Guidance: Please continue reading this article. PHP editor Apple will introduce in detail how to set "read-only mode" in PPT and add a password to ensure that your presentation is safe.

After setting the protection, a dialog box will pop up when opening the PPT, prompting that you need to "enter the password to modify or open in read-only mode", that is, enter the password to edit and modify the PPT. If you click "Read-only", you can also open the file. But only files can be viewed.

What should I do if I accidentally forget the "read-only" password that was originally set, but need to edit and modify the PPT? We can solve it in the following two ways. Method 1:

Remove the "read-only" password by changing the PPT file format. Please follow the steps below.

1. Make a copy of the PPT set in "read-only mode" to prevent file damage caused by operational errors.

2. Change the suffix of the copied PPT to "rar" through "Rename", which is the compressed file format.

3. Use decompression software, double-click to open the file with the modified suffix, find the folder named "ppt", and then double-click to open it.

4. After opening the folder named "ppt", find the file "presentation.xml", then right-click the mouse and select the [Open Internal Viewer] option in the list.

5. After a code text box pops up, press the "Ctrl+F" keys on the keyboard to bring up the search dialog box, then enter "modify" in the search box to search and locate, quickly find and delete them all.

6. After deleting the selected code, close the text box, select [Yes] in the pop-up dialog box, and then close other dialog boxes.

7. After closing all dialog boxes, re-modify the suffix of the PPT file with the original modified suffix to PPT suffix, and the file will change back to PPT.

At this time, the "read-only" password of the PPT is released. When you open the file again, there will be no dialog box prompting you to enter the password, which means you can freely edit and modify the file.
