Windows 10: Is there a way that I can retrieve my old passwords

Is there a way to retrieve previous password list.

Is there a way to retrieve previous password list. I have a laptop which I haven't used in a year and it requires old password to login because it is not connected to internet. I have current password and am using this account but I want to know my previous passwords because I don't remember them.

 

Is there a way to retrieve old passwords after a user has reset their password?

Hello Laangman,

I am Jaspreet Singh.

I am very sorry but no the password is not saved anywhere in a form that can be retrieved and secondly once the password is changed the old password won't be retrievable either though do note that is this is a Microsoft account password and you enter a recent old password you get a warning that an old password was entered.

 

Is there a way to retrieve old passwords after a user has reset their password?

I have an non-admin account on a Acer laptop running Windows 10. I don't have the password, but I do have the answers to the reset questions. What I want to know is, if I reset the password to a new password, can I retrieve the old password I forget from wherever it used to be stored? If not, will backing up the entire C drive let me "save" the old password as part of the snap shot of the system?

Example: User account example has password 1234, which I forgot. I change the password to 2345 via reset questions. Will the password 1234 still be stored anywhere?

Ideally, I can execute the method to retrieve the password without having to use the admin permissions, since I forgot that too and the one who knows what it is isn't responding to anyone
