How to See or Show WiFi Password on Windows 10 PC?
Hi all,
I’m looking for help with finding my WiFi password on a Windows 10 machine. I’ve connected my computer to the network, but I can’t seem to locate the password to share with someone else. I’ve tried searching the settings and network options, but nothing seems to give me the password directly.
Has anyone figured out how to see or show WiFi password in Windows 10 computer? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

It is easy to forget WiFi password as it is less used. In some case, the wifi password is very strong and hard to remember. In fact, you can show wifi password in Windows 10 via control panel settings:
Step 1: Open the Control Panel by pressing Windows + R, type control, and hit Enter.
Step 2: Go to Network and Sharing Center.
Step 3: Click on your active WiFi network name (next to Connections).
Step 4: In the WiFi Status window, click on Wireless Properties.
Step 5: Under the Security tab, check the box next to Show characters to reveal your WiFi password.This is a very simple method to see WiFi password on Windows 10.
