Decrypt word file

Hi, anyone out there who knows how to decrypt/unlock a password protected Microsoft-Word file?

I password protected a document and forgot the password 😯
You will want to use probably a helper script such as office2john.py (it's on github on john the ripper magnum (yes you will have to find it) from there of course you will save the hash to a file and using either HashCat or John The Ripper you will begin bruteforcing the password. Since you made the password you will want to have a text file with common passwords you use and even misspellings wrong characters all that jazz.

If you need a guide look here it's a rather common or well documented process
