How to view the Wi-Fi password in Windows 10

If you forgot him connection to your Wi-Fi, in Windows 10, there is no way to see it through the OS UI even if you are an administrator. (*) In older Microsoft systems things were simpler, as from the network and with a few clicks on properties you could reveal a forgotten password.10 windows tweaks

So let's see how you can view saved Wi-Fi login codes in one running Windows 10.

To view and retrieve the Wi-Fi passwords stored in Windows 10, you must do the following:

Ανοίξτε μια γραμμή εντολών με δικαιώματα διαχειριστή. Δεξί κλικ στην κάτω αριστερή γωνία κάτω από το Start Menu και επιλέξτε Command Prompt (Admin) ή στην of Windows 10 type “command prompt”. In the list of results, simply right-click the Command Prompt icon, then click Run as administrator.

First you need to see which wireless profiles (networks) you have saved in Windows 10.

Type the following command:

netsh wlan show profiles

All networks stored from time to time will be displayed in you.

Let's say the network you are interested in is called "iGuRugr"

Type the following command by changing the name of the network to what you are interested in:

netsh wlan show profile name = "iGuRugr" key = clear

Repeat the process for all the profiles you want to see the saved password.
You can also list all networks with all passwords at the same time using the following command:

netsh wlan show profile * key = clear

Good Luck!
