How to find the password under the stars?

How to find the password under the stars?

Using multiple online services means you have a lot of passwords and usernames that you need to remember. Aware of this problem, all Internet browsers have a special feature that, as soon as you log in to your email account, for example, asks you to save your password and username. So the next time you want to use that site again, the browser will fill in the login fields automatically. All password managers do the same.

However, while the username is fully displayed, the password is hidden by asterisks, ie. dots. If you do not remember the password, you will not be able to discover it in any way other than to reset it.

So I'll show you how to see the code under the stars in a few seconds.

For Chrome:

Right-click on the field where the code is (stars) and select the last option "Inspect Elements". You will now see a piece of code at the bottom of the page. You will see it in the row that is enhanced with blue

<input type="password"...>

All you have to do is double click on the word "password" and type "text".

And now in the password field, there will be no asterisks but text - you will see the password!

For Firefox:

For Firefox, the process is a little easier. Install THIS add-on and you will see a new icon in the lower right corner. Just click on it and all the codes, hidden under the stars, will be displayed on the page.

show pass

If you do not see this icon, then the Add-on bar is turned off. To turn it on, click Menu > Options > add-on bar.

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

What is the difference between regular Sleep mode and Hybrid sleep mode? And what is Hibernate ? I will try to explain in the simplest way possible so that everyone understands nicely. 1. Sleep When you select Sleep mode , all components of the computer except RAM are shut down to store data. So, if you do something on the computer and press Sleep, the computer shuts down and everything you did (left open windows, documents, etc.) is stored in RAM.
