MDB Key

Many of the websites you visit and create an account for use databases to store all credentials safe. However, a database can also be created locally for personal use, and even secured with a password. Chances are you forget this security key, in which case you might want to use applications like MDB Key to remove the password to be able to access content again.

Lightweight and easy to use

It only takes a little while to get the application installed on your computer, thus giving you a chance to check out the set of features before you know it. What’s more, you don’t even have to have Microsoft Access installed on your computer for things to work out. However, you do need to keep an eye every step of the way during setup, or you can end up with other components that you might not need.
Upon launch, the main window shows up, with a neat description to make sure you don’t get stuck along the way. The interface is pretty intuitive, letting anyone accommodate in a jiffy, regardless of experience. The process is mostly automated, with your effort reduced to selecting the target database you want to process.

Instantly removes MDB file password

As the name might suggest, the application targets MDB files that are locked with a password, in an attempt to remove it so you can access content again. The way this is done is through the built-in browse dialog, because dragging the target file over the main window has no effect.
MDB Key removes the security key as soon as the database file loads, with no other trigger button for that matter. The database format is shown in a corresponding field, as well as the status of the password. However, you don’t get to extract the password, or even view it, so once the database is processed, it has the password permanently removed.

On an ending note

All things considered, we come to the conclusion that MDB Key is a handy application for eliminating the password requirements for Access database files. The process runs smooth, with a quick accommodation process and little effort required on your behalf. Sadly, the reverse process can’t be done.
