Fortunately, now all computers using Windows 10 can review saved wifi passwords.
Did you ever fall into the case of forgetting your wifi password? Imagine having a friend come home one day and ask for a wifi password but you suddenly forgot. Quite confused? Normally, when forgetting the wifi password, people will immediately call the network provider to request to get back or change a new password. However, this is quite confusing and takes a lot of time.
Fortunately, now all computers using Windows 10 can review saved wifi passwords. That is, if you miss your password, it is possible to do the following to get it back.
The following operations are very simple, it does not require you to know too much about computers. Just a single command and you will see the wifi password that you forgot. Note that this way only shows us the wifi networks I have visited.
The first thing you need to do is access the search command and type "PowerShell". A command panel will appear as shown below.
Then, what you need to do is copy the following command into the command table that appears:
netsh wlan show profile name = "NETWORK" key = clear
Remember to replace "network" with the wifi name you need to find the password (wifi's SSID). Next, just press "Enter" key to get the command line executed. You will see a long list of details about the wifi you want to find the password for. The rest is to find the "Security Setting" section. There you will see a line called "Key Content", which contains your wifi password. Last step, share wifi for relatives and friends if you want.
These are extremely simple steps, not picky for anyone who somehow accidentally forgot his wifi password. Remember to close the PowerShell window as soon as you remember the password to ensure your home wifi security. Besides retrieving the wifi password, this way you can also see the information for its details, including the security settings and the type of wifi you are using.
Do not forget to share this way with any loved one because everyone will have to forget his wifi password once. This is one of the simplest ways to get back the wifi password that I accidentally forgot, save it because you don't know when you need to use it!
