How can I find my saved WiFi password on Windows 10?

I don't think using command prompt to Find saved WiFi Password on Windows 10 is a good idea. First off, you have to run Command Prompt as an administrator. If you're not logged in as an admin or if your account doesn't have the necessary permissions, you’ll run into a brick wall. I once tried this after switching accounts and was like, “Wait, why isn’t this working?” It can be a pain if you’re on a shared computer where you don’t have that access.

This isn’t the most user-friendly process, especially if you’re not super tech-savvy. You need to remember the exact commands and replace the WiFi network name appropriately. If you misspell anything or get the command slightly off, it won’t work. I’ve done this before and ended up staring blankly at the screen, wondering what I did wrong.

This method only reveals WiFi passwords for networks you've already connected to and saved. If you're trying to recover a password for a guest network or one you’ve never connected to, you’re out of luck. The other day, I needed a password for a friend's network, and I realized I didn’t have it saved. Total bummer!
