On most application programs and web browsers, the password field is protected and masked with asterisks (or stars aka ********* symbols) when user entering the secret credentials into the text box on web pages or program’s interface to avoid hacker peeps over the shoulders. Asterisk masking of password is good security measure. However, in some scenarios, there may be a need to reveal and show the hidden password string or value hidden behind the asterisks.
So when user forgets or misplaces the password for particular website or service or software application, it’s possible to retrieve and recover the password from the saved password, if user can reveal and view the masked password hidden under the asterisks on password field on web pages or program’s user interface.
