Reveal Hidden asterisks password using Revelation

Author: Madhur Kapoor

19 Jan

There are many times when we save some password in the computer and forget. The password is in front of us in the form of asterisks but we don’t remember it. This is where Snadboys’ Revelation comes into play.

Revelation is a free utility that can be used to reveal passwords which are behind the asterisks. All you have to do is run the software and drag the crosshair to the password field. The password will then be visible in the English form.

The utility can also be used to reveal password in Internet Explorer 7 but not in FireFox. The utility is free and its size is only 233 Kb . Download it from here. What do you think about it? Have you tried any such software before? Do share your views in comments.

Hmm seems to be very good.
As of now, I prefer using “Password revealer” for getting the passwords behind asterisks.

Good to check if you have typed the right password before submitting a form

Now that is pretty cool! I’m going to have to check this one out. There has been more than a few times in which I’ve racked my brain trying to figure out what the password is. Good find!. Stumbled!
