I use a desktop PC in my office but now have a laptop to use at home. The desktop has been used to access a number of sites with a Password stored so when I go info site I just get ***** showing as my Password. But how do I find out what this Password actually is so I can then register my favourite sites on my laptop? If I try the "Forgotten your Password" option I am usually given the choice of registering a new Password but I want to keep the original one.


So how do I find out what the ****** things are?


Thanks, dl

what browser do you use ?
On Chrome you go into settings, advanced settings, manage passwords, highlight site in question, then click "show"

also in Chrome if you sign in on main PC (you may need a gmail account), then sign in on laptop/tablet and sync the browser all will be there.

Depends on the browser (and version) you're using David. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome?

If it's a fairly recent versioin of IE have a look at option one here: http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials...ew-remove.html

Just enter the password you always like to use in the new password option even if it's the same one. I have done this lots of times with no issues.

I have Explorer but don't know what version? Can't seem to find out which version. Tired "properties" but no luck




When I try this I am usually told to reset password. If I use same one then I am told it is already in use and I have to choose another.

Well choose another then when your sorted change your password back to what you want.

loads of password showers out there, just be careful not to download anything dodgy.

In control panel, go into "credential manager"

It will show your ********* in there to the websites you visit

But you have the option of displaying the actual password

(you have to be a local administrator on the laptop)

Install Chrome, import all settings and passwords from whatever browser you use, then follow the instructions for Chrome given above.

... never use IE again.

I think Chrome is a joke, on a PC at least

not sure what they have done to it (it used to be small slick quite fast)

now it is the worse browser I come across
