FAQ
What exactly gets removed?
It targets hidden formatting, comments, and metadata such as author and revision details, while leaving your visible content intact.
Is the cleaning reversible?
No. Once removed, that hidden data is gone from the cleaned file. Keep your original if you might need the metadata later.
Does it change how my document looks?
Your visible text and intended formatting stay the same. Only hidden and non-essential data is cleared out.
Can I use DOCX Cleaner on mobile?
Yes — ToolHub is fully responsive and works on iPhone, Android, tablets and all modern browsers. No app install needed.
