    Hi lolad62565928,

    Sadly, as its document protection security password so there is nothing that we can do about this.

    Adobe doesn't keep backup the customer's created passwords.

    For more information you may refer to -Securing PDFS with passwords, Adobe Acrobat

    How can I retrieve the password to open any new PDF files I'm trying to open from a CD?
