Step 1
If you are using the Mozilla Firefox browser with cookies enabled in the settings to browse the web, find out your saved logins and passwords directly in the software. Start your Internet browser, open the "Tools" item and go to the system settings. In the window that appears, containing several tabs, activate the "Protection" option.
Step 2
Click on the "Saved Passwords" button in the section that appears and go to the new page of the web browser. It has identification symbols that are stored in the computer memory when you visit various Internet resources. Click on the line "Display passwords". You can protect your confidential information and set a passcode in the same browser menu.
Step 3
Find out usernames if you visit the world wide web resources using the popular Opera browser. Open the Tools menu item at the top of your web browser, use a password manager and view the list of user logins.
Step 4
Install additional software to access saved passwords by choosing Opera Password Recovery utility. Remember that a third-party program does not guarantee the complete safety of your personal data.
Step 5
When viewing passwords in Google Chrome, open the corresponding option in the browser toolbar. Go to advanced settings and activate the item "Show cookies".
Step 6
Use BehindTheAsterisks, a universal free utility with an intuitive interface, and find passwords in the cookies of the standard Internet Explorer browser. Go to the program options to display codewords with symbols instead of asterisks and get access to passwords.
