Asterisk Password Decryptor is a small, standalone Windows utility that recovers passwords stored behind a row of asterisks in desktop applications, the ones you saved yourself and have since forgotten. Drag the tool target onto a password box, and it reveals the real password hidden there. It works with credentials that are already saved locally in many desktop applications, such as email and FTP clients, and runs on 32-bit and 64-bit Windows. It reads a password that one of your applications has already stored on your PC and is displaying as asterisks, and shows you the underlying text. Use it only to recover your own saved passwords, on a computer you control. It does not obtain passwords you never had, and it is not a way to read credentials for websites or accounts you do not own. A one-time purchase includes a perpetual license and free lifetime upgrades.
