Hello,
The WiFi password is automatically saved on my phone, so I don't need to rewrite it every time. However, recently I bought an Apple touchscreen device and to fully enjoy all the features, I need Internet. The problem is as follows: I lost the paper where I had written my password to access my WiFi and I can't remember it. I would really like to know how to retrieve my WiFi password on my computer.
I really need your help. Anyone who can solve my problem will have my utmost respect!
Best regards
Configuration: Windows 8 / Firefox 34.0

Hello,
Also note that the default Wi-Fi password is usually written underneath the WiFi router or the box. If you have changed the default Wi-Fi password to a custom password, simply reset the box or router to restore the original password.
Also note that if your Wi-Fi router is equipped with the WPS function (this is the case for all recent boxes), you just need to press this button, then connect to the Wi-Fi from your computer to be connected to the Wi-Fi without having to enter any password!
- right-click on the network (or Wi-Fi) icon next to the clock
- Open Network and Sharing Center
- change adapter settings
- right-click on your Wi-Fi network
- then on status
- then on Wireless Properties
- Security tab
- Check the box Show characters.
- Your password is displayed in the Network security key field
- click ok
