Is it possible to see the password in a VKontakte profile?
It would seem that it should be possible to see your key in the page settings when you log into a social network. But there is no such possibility. You can change the data, but to do this you need to know the current settings. Let's make sure of this.
Let's go to settings.
Opposite the “Password” item we see information about the date of its last update and the inscription “Change”. Click on it. 3 columns appear for entering text, the first of which implies knowledge of the current value of the parameter.
As you can see, you cannot see the information we are interested in in your profile. I think this is not an accident, but a precaution so that a stranger cannot get it and use it.
Where is the password control unit located?
You need to look for it in the “Settings” section. Go there.
Here you will see the “Password” block.
If you click on the “Change” button, a password change form will open.
Here you will need to provide the old data and also enter the new password twice. When finished, click the "Change Password" button.
But we haven't solved the problem. It is impossible to view the old password in this form. How to be?
How can I see the encrypted password?
If the login and code from the VKontakte profile are saved in the browser, they can be filled in automatically. Then on the website vk.com you see your phone or email address, and in the second field there are dots. You can find out what is hidden under them through the element code.
To do this, right-click on the field with dots and select “Explore element” from the drop-down list. This inscription may be different for you, it is important to understand the essence: we need to look at the program code of this field.
A window will appear with the selected text. You need to double-click on the word “password” with the left mouse button and replace it with the number 1.
After this, letters and numbers will appear in the column instead of dots - the desired key to the page on the social network.
How to find out the password for VKontakte in a browser
If you forgot your login information, but accessed the page in a web browser rather than in an app on Android or iOS, you can find it. Everything will work out if you previously allowed the browser to save information about accounts on sites you visit.
You can also enable the program to store information entered on different pages in the settings.
Now let's look at how to get your key to your VKontakte profile.
Mozilla Firefox
Let's go to the main menu. To do this, click on the icon with the image of 3 stripes in the upper right corner of the screen. We are interested in settings.
Now select “Privacy and Protection” in the list on the left. On the page that appears we find the “Logins and Passwords” section.
Click on the “Saved Logins” button. If you previously allowed your browser to store data from your VKontakte account, the site will be in the list. Click on it with the mouse and click on the “Display password” button.
Another obstacle awaits you here. Most likely, Firefox will ask you to enter a master key, that is, a secret code from itself. If you remember it, then everything is in order - the goal has been achieved, information for logging into VK will appear on the screen.
Google Chrome
Open the menu, which is located under the 3 dots in the upper right corner. Let's go to settings.
In the very first settings we see the inscription “Passwords”. Click on the triangle on the right. In the list of sites with saved credentials we see vk.com. You can open them by clicking on the eye drawing.
The Google Chrome browser does not have its own passcode, so it will ask you to enter a combination to access your Windows account.
Opera
To get to the main menu, you need to click on the “O” logo in the upper left corner of the screen. In the drop-down list we find “Settings”.
Scroll down the page and click “Advanced”. We find the subsection “Passwords and forms”. Now let's open the drop-down window opposite the last item.
Now all that remains is to find the site vk.com and click next to it on the drawing of the eye. I hope you remember the code for your Windows account, we use it every day. Enter it and receive your login information for the social network.
Yandex browser
The beauty of this browser is that by default it saves information that you entered on different pages, unless you change the settings. If you use this program to access the Internet, then you can quite easily find out your codes from VKontakte.
Click on the icon with three stripes and go to settings.
In the top line, switch to the “Passwords” tab and click on the vk.com address.
In the window that opens, you need to click on the picture of the eye, the desired combination of symbols will immediately appear - the key to your VK account.
So, the password for VKontakte can be found in the browser if it saved data when entering the site.
What password can you come up with for VK?
Contents of the article (navigation)
The popular social network VKontakte has an excellent security system that protects the user’s page from all kinds of “theft” of the profile by automatically selecting passwords, even if hackers have the profile login. In most cases, the user himself is to blame for hacking pages, but sometimes the reason is that the password is too simple.
What does it mean? This is the simplest password, which consists of just a few characters or letters. For example:
- 123456 consecutive numbers
- 555555 repeating the same number
- qwertyuiop a series of letters located on the keyboard in a row
- samsung phone brand
- ivanov1991 surname with date of birth
- Lenaandrej names
These are just a few examples. Therefore, the more complex the password, the more securely the user’s page is protected and the less likely it is to be hacked.
What is the most difficult password you can come up with for VK?
There are many ways to guess a password, we will look at a few of them.
First you need to decide on the number of characters. As a rule, programmers advise using passwords consisting of at least eight characters, but this is not the limit. Although the recommended minimum length is eight, to secure your profile, it is best to use a password of ten to twelve. It would seem that why so much, but with such a long account, the account will be protected tens or even thousands of times more.
When you have already decided on the number of characters, you can proceed to the password itself.
examples of complex passwords for VK:
- obAoyBBtnW
- yUxdhEUHGn
- yKVPN8Adwm
- LQiXTFheYo
- vqDbErog4B
- cdN8rU9JXY
- m1tYxq8oNN
- wIspGLSoZZ
- Ikzio88BTX
- se95R2qpPR
The list could go on for a long time, but I think you get the point.
What password can you come up with for VK easily and simply?
One of the simplest options is to take some Russian word, for example refrigerator, and write it in Latin characters; on an English layout this word will look like this [jkjlbkmybr.
Just 11 characters. If it’s not enough, then you can make it more difficult for hackers to add numbers to the password. For better memorization of numbers, it is desirable that it be some kind of memorable date.
For example, birthday: February 21, therefore the password will already look like this [jkjlbkmybr2102.
To make the password even more complex, you can write it with a capital letter:
It’s better to write down the password somewhere in a notepad so you don’t forget it.
There is another way to ensure that attackers do not hack your page - this is confirmation by phone number. Each page is linked to a personal number; when you enter the page, the system sends a digital code that must be entered in the field. Done, no one else except you will now be able to access the page.

Account recovery
If you are on your page or in the official application on your phone, you can go to help and use the prompts to restore the code word.
If you are trying to log into your account using your username, but nothing works, click on the link below.
You will be redirected to another tab where you need to enter the email or phone number to which your social network profile is linked. If these recovery methods are not available, follow the link at the bottom of the window.
Don’t be afraid to contact support – it won’t get any worse. Although, of course, it’s not pleasant.
Programs for finding passwords on a PC
Whether you save information in the browser or not, combinations of numbers and letters that were entered on all sites are still stored in it and on the computer. You won’t be able to find them out just like that; there is no folder on your hard drive with all the keys. But there are special programs and utilities that will help solve the problem if all the methods described above are not suitable.
Here are some of them:
- Multi Password Recovery Portable – does not require installation, retrieves all codes entered from the computer;
- PasswdFinder is also an independent software that will get ciphers from all services and sites;
- WebBrowserPassView is a browser add-on that can be installed in the extensions section; it finds all the keys that were used in a given Internet browser.
To be honest, I have never used such products, so I recommend reading reviews and installing a reliable antivirus before downloading.
How to find out someone else's credentials from VKontakte
I don’t know why I would need a login and password from someone else’s page on VK and I doubt that anyone is interested in such information with good intentions. But I can say that you can find out the codes of another person using the same methods described above, if you have access to his computer. Or if your friend or co-worker inadvertently accessed their profile from your device and saved their login information.

How to make money on VK: the best ways to make money on VKontakte today
Hello, dear readers of the ilife.ru blog. Vasily Blinov and...
Usually your login is your phone number
Your VK login is usually your phone number to which you registered the page. For example, 89211234567. If you have this number at hand, then there is no problem. I remember the password, but I don’t remember the login - then I enter the number as a login, enter the password and go to the page. Just don’t forget to enter the country code at the beginning of your number - for example, Russian numbers should have the number 8 or 7 at the beginning, and the number should have 11 digits in total. Try logging in through the Login start page - this is the easiest way.
Is it possible to log into VK without a login? No, because the login determines who exactly is logging in, and the password proves that it is that person and not someone else.
Even if you forgot your password, you can order a recovery code via SMS to your number and gain access to the page (you just have to come up with a new password). Here are instructions on how to do this: Restoring access to VKontakte. Then you will log in to the VKontakte website with your number as your login and new password.
There is an exception: when login confirmation via SMS is enabled, quick password recovery does not work. You will find out what to do in this case here: Quick VK password recovery is not available. Why and what to do?
