Since docx files are actually zip compressed files, wondering if they might be
using the zip encryption and password? If so, would be interesting to see if
one could use zip to uncompress the file with password, and then recreate
the zip without the password.
Just found this site, but have not tried it.

Don't use office much, so not sure where the option is to secure a file to test
this.
Make sure to make a copy of the file before trying this.
