If you've forgotten a Wi-Fi password, such as your neighbor's, but need to reconnect, heres a simple method using the Windows Command Prompt.

Follow these steps:

1. Press Win + R to open the Run dialog box, then type "cmd"to launch the Command Prompt.

2. Type the command "netsh wlan show profiles"to display a list of all Wi-Fi networks you've connected to in the past.

3. To view the password for a specific network, type "netsh wlan show profile name="Network Name" key=clear".

The password will be listed next to "Key Content."
