Find Password Protected Documents 6.6.352

To my mind, in the software world developers name their applications in one of two ways. The first way goes something like this: they think of something that sounds cool, and give the application that cool-sounding name; it doesn’t matter that you can’t tell what the application can do by simply looking at the name. My favorite example is Firefox. The name sounds cool, and you can’t tell you’re dealing with a browser by simply looking at the name.

The second way goes something like this: think of what the application can do and name the application accordingly. If the application is a converter, name it Bla Bla Converter; if it is a media player, name it Bla Bla Player. The user can simply take a look at the application’s name and immediately realize what it can do.

The LastBit Software-developed application Find Password Protected Documents certainly falls in this category. This application, as its name so adequately points out, will help you locate password protected documents stored on your computer. The application provides support for a long list of file types – Word documents, Excel documents, Access databases, Outlook file, OneNote, PowerPoint, MS Money files and Zip archives.

Here’s a list of supported file formats: .doc, .dot, .docx, .docm, .dotx, .dotm, .xl, .xlsx, .xlsm, .xlsb, .xlam, .xltx, .xltm, .pst, .mdb, .mde .mdw, .accdb, .accde, .one, .mny, .ppt, .pot, .pos, .pptx, .pptm, .posx, .potm, .potx, .ppsx, .zip.

The application comes with a very simple to use interface that should not pose a problem to any user, not even the novice user.

Before you go get Find Password Protected Documents and put it to the test, take a look at the following technical details:
