Hello,

A friend of mine is staying in my house in another country for a week and he needs my WiFi password. So now the problem is that I cant find where all these passwords are saved. Of the WiFi I'm currently connected to, it is easy to find, but I cant find it of the WiFi of my house that is a few thousand Km's away. So now is the question: How can I find the password of the WiFi of my house that is far away?

I know it is possible in Windows 7, as shown in this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e11d54amqe0 ), but the "Manage wireless networks" wont show up!

Even when I go to the metro UI, I can find "manage known networks" but the only option it gives me is "forget"! This is driving me mad!

Please, someone say there is a solution! Thank you! :)

Hi

Usually passwords written on label on router/modem/wireless access point

If you have access to a Windows PC/laptop which has been on that wireless access point then run
Nirsoft.net utility

wireless key View

This shows all stores wireless access passwords
(some AV software treat this software as malware & quarantine or delete)
