Troubleshooting & FAQ

Why do I get "Access Denied" error?
You need to run Command Prompt as Administrator. Right-click on Command Prompt and select "Run as administrator". This is required to access stored network credentials.
The network doesn't appear in the profiles list
This means you haven't connected to this network before on this device, or the profile was deleted. Only previously connected networks with saved credentials will appear in the list.
I see "Key Content" is empty or shows "Absent"
This can happen if: (1) The network uses open authentication (no password), (2) The password was not saved when connecting, or (3) You don't have sufficient privileges to view the key.
Can I use this to hack WiFi passwords?
No. This tool only retrieves passwords that are already saved on your device from networks you've previously connected to. It cannot hack, crack, or retrieve passwords from networks you haven't connected to before.
Is this legal and safe to use?
Yes, when used properly. You're only accessing passwords stored on your own device for networks you've legitimately connected to. Always follow your organization's IT policies and only use on networks you own or have permission to access.
