Audit a received document before extracting an embedded object
Recover only an identified embedded Excel sheet or document
Spot an executable signature or legacy OLE container before security review

GOOD TO KNOW

Limitations to know

WorkToolset does not execute, decompile or antivirus-scan objects. A detected signature only describes the observed format.
Internal names and formats of binary OLE containers cannot always be recovered without a specialized engine. Items flagged as executables/scripts require explicit authorization before extraction.

HOW IT WORKS

A straightforward workflow.

1Prepare the required input and choose useful options.
2Review previews, warnings and limitations before export.
3Download a new copy or report: the original stays unchanged.
