How to See or Show WiFi Password on Windows 10 PC?
If you have forgotten your Wi-Fi password on a Windows PC, you can retrieve it using a few methods. Below are steps for decrypting or viewing saved Wi-Fi passwords on a Windows 10 machine.
In the Command Prompt window, type the following command and press Enter to view wifi password in Windows 10 PC:
netsh wlan show profiles
This command lists all the Wi-Fi networks (profiles) that your computer has connected to. Look for the line that says Key Content. The value next to it is your Wi-Fi password.
Note: You need administrative privileges to execute some of these commands and access certain settings.
This method will only show passwords for networks that your computer has previously connected to and saved.
Important: Ensure that you have permission to access the Wi-Fi network you're trying to retrieve the password for. Unauthorized access to networks is illegal and unethical.
