How to Decode asterisk Password- All web browsers, for security reasons, mask the password fields in login forms behind asterisk characters thus making it impossible for passersby to see your secret string.There’s however an easy work around that will let you convert those asterisks into the actual password and you don’t need any external utilities for this. Here’s how: Right-click the password field and then choose “Inspect Element.” This will open the document inspector window and all you have to do is replace the word “password” with “text”. What we have done is changed the type of the field from “password” to “text” and hence the password is revealed as the text input fields are never masked. The above trick was discovered in Google Chrome but you can use it across all browsers including Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari. In the case of IE, press F12 to open the Developer Tools window and then press Ctrl+B to activate the element selection mode. NOTE - THIS TRICK HAS NOT BEEN TESTED BY ME. SO ITS A HUMBLE REQUEST TO THE FANS THAT YOU TRY THIS TRICK AND LET US KNOW IF IT WORKS. AdmiN- IkLiL
