Advanced Intuit Password Recovery (or simply AINPR) is a program to recover lost or forgotten passwords to Intuit Quicken (*.QDT, *.QDB, *.QDF), Quicken Lawyer (*.PFL, *.BFL) and QuickBooks (.QBA, .QBW) files. Multilingual passwords are supported. Quicken versions 4 through 2006 and QuickBooks versions  3 through 2005 are supported. Note: for Quicken 2002 and QuickBooks 2003 to 2006, only short passwords can be recovered, but passwords containing 4 or more characters can be instantly removed. For Quicken 2003 to 2006, only brute-force and dictionary attacks are available. QuickBooks 2006 and QuickBooks 6 Enterprise are detected, but not supported yet.

= Registration =

An unregistered (trial) version of AINPR recovers the passwords that are not longer than 3 characters. For Quicken 2002 and QuickBooks 2003/2004/2005, AINPR can recover short passwords only, but does not remove longer ones. For Quicken 2003..2006, any brute-force and dictionary attack options can be set, but only one- or two-character passwords are shown (when/if found); longer passwords are saved, so after registration, they will be shown instantly in the full version. To get full functionality, please consider purchasing the software.

After you register (look at "order.txt" for details), we'll send you your personal registration code. To enter it into the program, just press the "Register" button on the toolbar; the program will display the small window dialog asking you to enter the code. If the code is correct, AINPR shows the message that it is registered now, and so since than has all the features in place.
