remove password from a BRD file to enable editing

archive
archive over 17 years ago

i have done a practice layout design in the past and i tried to lock it with a password.
now, i would like to edit the layout and perform some modifications.

is there a way that i could remove the password from my layout file so i could edit it?
is there a workaround to save the BRD file so it could be edited?

    Hi there.
    If created in 15.5 - 15.7 then open the board file in 15.2 or some thing like that (haven't got the password posibilities), safe the board file and password is deleted :-).
