How to Retrieve WPA2 Password in Windows 10

Forgetting your Wi-Fi password can be frustrating, especially when you need to connect a new device to your network. If you're using a Windows 10 computer and have previously connected to the network, you can easily retrieve your WPA2 password using the following steps:

1. Open the 'Network and Sharing Center' by right-clicking on the network icon in the system tray.
2. Click on the name of your Wi-Fi network.
3. Click on 'Wireless Properties'.
4. Go to the 'Security' tab.
5. Check the box that says 'Show characters'.
6. Your WPA2 Wi-Fi password will now be displayed in the 'Network security key' field.

It's important to note that you will need administrative privileges on your Windows 10 computer to retrieve the password using this method. Make sure to keep your Wi-Fi password secure to prevent unauthorized access to your network.
