Free iTunes Backup Unlocker

We have all been in that situation where your memory fails you, which unfortunately leads to data being at least temporarily stuck in an inaccessible document or account, what with a password being involved in the entire conundrum.
If you happen to look for a solution for this particular scenario, Free iTunes Backup Unlocker may be what you need.

Unlocks password-protected iTunes backup files

As made rather evident by its very name, the program’s core functionality is related to its ability to unlock password-protected iTunes backup files you may need for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod in case it is no longer possible for you to that by resorting to your own memory.
The application’s GUI is minimalist, with little user input being required from your part. Once you have started the software utility, you are prompted with a list of your backup files along with their date and serial number.
In case that does not happen, the most probable explanation is that your iOS device has not been synchronized with iTunes, in which case you need to manually select the backup file.

Includes three decryption methods

And now for the more interesting part. Clicking the “Next” button list three ways in which the application can recover your file. These are brute-force attack, brute-force with mask attack, and dictionary attack.
The first is also the most time-consuming one, which was to be expected, considering that it tries all possible combinations. The second allows you to customize the length of the password as well as other filters linked to the type of characters while also letting you indicate a prefix and/or suffix.
Last but not least, the dictionary attack is the method relying on an inbuilt or customized dictionary file. At this point, hitting the “Start” button should initiate the recovery process, with the required time for the program to accomplish this task depending on the length of the password.

Intuitive program helping you recover lost iTunes passwords

All in all, Free iTunes Backup Unlocker is an easy-to-use piece of software helping you decrypt password-protected iTunes backup files in no time. While offering three different approaches you can take to the situation, it does not ask for out-of-the-ordinary computer skills from its users.
