Right click the wifi icon in the notification area, select 'open network and sharing center'.
Click 'manage wireless networks' from the left panel.
Double click your network connection.
Click the 'security' tab.
check the 'show characters' box.

Don't you think that CAIN is a bit too hardcore for an everyday joe? I'd recommend the Wireless Key Finder instead.FAST6191 said:Earlier versions of windows might lack simple password reveals, fortunately we have the likes of
