How to reveal passwords hidden as asterisks/dots right there with one click

Most modern browsers offer the capability of remembering usernames and passwords. Most of us use this feature to automatically save our passwords in order to log in to our favorite websites more quickly. What if you forget the saved password?

As web browsers intelligently hide passwords using stars(asterisks or dots), there is no way in which a user can recover his password by simply looking at what the browser shows. Here are some tips and tricks that you can use to reveal your password for a website when you have forgotten it but your browser remembers it.

Simply drag this bookmark Show Password to your bookmarks bar (in Chrome). You have to enable the "Always show bookmarks bar" in settings if it is not shown.

And next time when you're on the page where passwords are hidden just click on that bookmark and password will be shown.

That's it.

With the accelerated growth, comes new opportunities, both good and bad. The latest example of the bad is a Product Activation Scam that some users are starting to see on their installations.
