Windows 7 operating system to view wireless network passwords

        I believe that many friends will use the wireless network in various occasions. If you have forgotten the password of the wireless network connection, but need to reinstall the system or tell your colleagues, it will be quite troublesome, and the trouble is that WindowsXp does not provide a view of the wireless network. The ability to connect passwords often has to rely on third-party software to see them.

In fact, if you are using Windows7 operating system, then it is easy to see the plaintext password to the wireless network, operations can be quite simple:

Step1: click the system tray The network icon of the zone, from the shortcut menu, select the wireless network connection to view the password, right click and select the connection, here may wait a little.

Step2: Click the network icon in the system tray, find the wireless network currently connected connection from the shortcut menu, right-click and select Properties. If you need to select another wireless network connection, go to the Network and Sharing Center window, select Manage Wireless Network from the navigation pane on the left, right click on the corresponding wireless network connection and select Properties from the shortcut menu.

Step3: opens wireless network properties dialog box, switch to the Security tab, the default settings of the network security key here will only show one by one dot, check the Show characters check Box, we can see the password in plain text, is it very simple?

course, for those without encryption enabled wireless network, there is no need to use the method above to view the password. However, the security work is still to be done.
