Display Hidden Password

In most browsers the password is displayed by black dots or the asterisks. A visitor or the user can’t see this password. In this post I am going explain a trick that will help you to find the hidden password. Follow the steps below to reveal password.

Step 1 : Open any web browser and go to website login page. The browser will automatically fill the password of the user. It is because of the ability of browser to remember username and password. [ It also possible to disable this feature]. Here the password is marked with black dots or stars.

Step 2 : Now right click mouse near to password box. When u right click the mouse a new menu will be displayed. Please select ‘Inspect Element’ from the menu.

Step 3 : Now a developer tool open at bottom of browser.

In the code section you can see type of password box is set to password. 

Please double click type and change to text. Now your password is revealed.
