How to Find Your Wireless Password on Windows 10
If you've ever forgotten your Wi-Fi password and need to reconnect another device, Windows 10 makes it easy to retrieve it. Here's how you can quickly find your wireless password:
- Right-click on the Start menu icon and select 'Windows PowerShell (Admin)'.
- In the PowerShell window, type 'netsh wlan show profile name=YOURNETWORKNAME key=clear' (replace 'YOURNETWORKNAME' with your actual network name) and hit Enter.
- Look for the 'Key Content' field under 'Security settings' in the profile information that appears. The value next to it is your Wi-Fi password.
It's important to note that you need administrative privileges to access this information. Keeping your wireless password secure is vital to protecting your network from unauthorized access.
