How to Find WiFi Passwords on Windows 10

Forgetting your WiFi password can be frustrating, especially when you need to reconnect a new device. Fortunately, if you are using Windows 10 and have connected to the network before, you can easily retrieve your WiFi password with a few simple steps:

1. Firstly, right-click on the Start button and select 'Windows PowerShell (Admin)' to open the command prompt.
2. In the command prompt, type netsh wlan show profiles and press Enter. This will display a list of all the WiFi networks you have connected to.
3. Next, choose the network for which you want to retrieve the password and type netsh wlan show profile name=NETWORK_NAME key=clear (replace NETWORK_NAME with the actual name of the network) and press Enter.
4. Look for the 'Key Content' line under the Security settings. The value next to it is your WiFi password.

By following these steps, you can easily find your WiFi passwords on Windows 10 and avoid the hassle of resetting your network configurations.
