Remove Hidden Data

The Remove Hidden Data add-in, developed by Microsoft, is an essential tool for anyone concerned about privacy and security. This program, now available in its latest version 11.0.6361, is designed to permanently remove hidden and collaboration data from Word 2003/XP, Excel 2003/XP, and PowerPoint 2003/XP files. The application supports Windows XP, and 7 and can be downloaded for free.

With Remove Hidden Data, users can eliminate sensitive information such as change tracking and comments that may be embedded in Office documents. This ensures that when distributing documents electronically, no personal or hidden data is inadvertently shared. The tool works seamlessly with your Microsoft Office applications, either directly on individual files or on multiple files simultaneously from the command line.

The installation comes with several executable files including OFFRHD.EXE, PROPFIX.EXE, Roxio_Central33.exe, and Roxio_Central36.exe. It is vital to have the Microsoft Office application on which the document was created installed for the add-in to function correctly. The included Offrhdreadme.htm file offers a detailed list of data types that the tool can remove, found by default in the \Program Files\Microsoft Office\Remove Hidden Data Tool\1033 directory.

This program is categorized under Photo & Graphics with a subcategory in Slideshow & Presentation. If needed, previous versions 11.0, and 1.1 are also available.
