IN VK"?
Probably the most often asked question online is how to find out someone else’s VKontakte password. Someone wants to test their girlfriend or boyfriend for loyalty, someone wants to expand their field of activity by sending out
advertising to potential clients, and some just out of curiosity. However, today hacking a VK account is not as easy as it could have been done several years ago - constant updates help improve the structure of this social network and increase its security. Below we will describe several ways in which you can try to get to someone else's page.
Method number 1: how to find out the VKontakte password using browser settings
The simplest method, probably familiar even to schoolchildren. Its implementation does not require special knowledge or masterly use of programming languages. All you need is a computer connected to the network and the Mozilla browser with preset settings. In order to configure the browser as necessary, on the top panel, open the “Tools” / “Settings” / “Protection” tab, where next to the “Save passwords” checkbox. Now all that remains is to invite the potential victim home and kindly provide her with
the opportunity to surf VK from your computer.
Method number 2: how to find out the VKontakte password through the password recovery form
Another fairly well-known method of hacking pages. Now the question of how to find out the VKontakte password, knowing the login, can be answered that this is impossible. If previously, recovering a lost password was available through a mailbox, which could be hacked by answering a simple security question, now you will definitely need to send a digital code from the phone number linked to the page. But if you have access to it, then it will not be difficult for you to change the password.
Method number 3: how to find out the VKontakte password using special programs
There are thousands of different programs that claim to be “100% working and absolutely free” with which you can do this. For no one anymore
It has long been no secret that most of them are viruses, the main goal of which is to extort money from gullible users. Working programs, of course, exist, but they operate only after they are installed on the computer from which information needs to be read. The principle of their operation is as follows: by scanning the system, they copy all saved and temporary passwords, transferring them to the owner.
How to find out the VKontakte password in other ways
There are many different ways to hack other people's VKontakte accounts. Among them, the following can be mentioned: sending messages on behalf of the administrator with a request (of course, under some serious pretext) to send the login and password for the page (but you need to try very hard to find a person who will agree to voluntarily “leave” his page); creating a duplicate site with a similar address, when a person, not feeling the substitution, leaves his data to the attacker (but in order to implement such a project, at least some knowledge of web programming is required).
Today, social networks have become an integral part of life. From posts and photographs, you can not only find out events from people’s personal lives, but also find out about their whereabouts. Therefore, situations when a user has forgotten his account login and password cause panic. There's really no reason to worry. There are several ways to recover your VK password.
Login
is the username. This can be a person's real name written in Latin letters, a nickname (a fictitious name) or a combination of numbers and letters.
Password
is a combination of letters, numbers and symbols. Its length and structure are adjusted by the site administration. Passwords that are at least 6 characters long and include special characters are considered secure (that is, those that are difficult to crack). Login and password are used for authorization on the site. If one of these elements is missing, then you will not be able to open an account on the social network. Examples of a login and password pair: Olya (qH3!bjrHhj), Roxana (gfhjk6).
Therefore, user registration is carried out in connection with email or mobile number. In this case, the user receives his login and password in the form of SMS or letter. It is also advisable to store this data on a piece of paper or on your phone so that you can restore the information at any time. Users who register via email usually create a “logins” folder in which all emails with registration data are stored.
How to find out your VK password through a browser
When you first visit a site, your browser asks for permission to save data. If the user gives his consent, the browser stores the login and password in the buffer. You can view this information in the settings of each browser.
To recover your VK password in the Yandex browser, you need to:
- in the right corner, click the three dots and in the drop-down menu list go to the “ Settings
” item; scroll down the new page to the “
Show additional settings
” item; find the “
Password Management
” button;
- Enter the VK website in the search bar and click the “” button in the password box.
To find out the password for VK in Google Chrome, you need to:
- in the right corner of the window, click the button in the form of three dots and select “ Settings
” in the menu;
- Scroll to the “” item in the new window;
- in a new window, select “” - the “ Customize
” button - a window with saved passwords will open; in the search bar, indicate the name of the site and select the item show opposite the password line.
Opera
To find out the password for VK in Opera, you need to:
- in the left corner of the window, press the “ Menu
” button and go to the “
Settings
” item; in the left part of the window, select “
Security
” - “”;
- A window with saved passwords will open; in the search bar, enter the name of the site and select the item show opposite the password line.
Mozilla Firefox
To find out the password for VK in Mozilla Firefox, you need to:
- in the right corner of the window, press the “ Menu
” button and go to the “
Settings
” item; go to the “” section - press the “” button;
- In a new window, specify the site URL so that the password for the social network is displayed.
If the user used the browser and then installed the application, but does not remember the password for the social network, it can be restored using the method described earlier, but through the phone. For example, when working with Google Chrome, you should open the browser on your smartphone and enter the link in the search bar. In the Saved Passwords
» find the desired site. The first line contains the login (email address), and the second line contains the password hidden by asterisks. To view it, you need to click on the eye icon:
Browser settings
If you think that this is the end of the exposure of the stars, then you are deeply mistaken. All browsers have an even more convenient way to view the password that you saved when you first logged in to the site. This time, let's take the Opera web browser as an example:
A window will appear containing many website addresses and data from different accounts. At first glance, everything is fine: logins, of course, are displayed, but instead of passwords, there are asterisks that are familiar to us. However, if you click on one row, you will see a Show button appear next to the stars.
One click and you see the security key for the site. You can reveal all the passwords, take a screenshot, and you won’t even realize that your password-protected pages are now in danger. Not only Opera, but also other browsers share such information. In Google Chrome, for example, such a sign can be called in the following way:
In Mozilla Firefox, a table with all saved access keys opens in the “Security” section of the settings.
In other browsers the situation is similar - all the data that you agree to be stored must be publicly available.
How to hack someone else's password from a VK page
Social networks today store a large amount of information: from website visit history to personal correspondence and even banking data. Therefore, there are a lot of people who want to know the login and password for VK from other third-party users.
Hacking a page means the possibility of obtaining the login and password of someone else's user. If the user's nickname is known, then half the work is done. For complete success, you will need access to the victim's email and his phone number at hand. Forgot my password?” button on the VK page.
» and follow the instructions in the email to restore it. A phone number will be required to confirm the new password. This method will be described in detail below.
You may also consider stealing cookies from a third-party PC. This method will work if the user logs into the social network only through a browser. Any antivirus program will quickly detect password-stealing spyware applications.
Hacking services
Any popular website has phishing duplicates. They are a copy of the main page, but with a changed address, for example, vkk.ru, vvk.com and so on. As soon as the user enters his username and password to enter the site, attackers automatically receive this data and can use it for their own purposes. The main task of hackers is to lure users to a phishing site. Most often, a virus is used for this. It makes changes to the hosts file in Windows, as a result of which the user is redirected to a phishing site. The second method is to follow the calling banner or hyperlink. To avoid falling into the trap of scammers, you need to install a good antivirus on your PC.
Using phishing sites
A fairly effective option for finding out the password of a friend or stranger on VKontakte is to use a phishing site. Its essence is to redirect the user to a fake social network login page. An unsuspecting person will enter the authorization data, thereby handing it over to the hacker.
For this idea to be successful, several conditions must be met:
- Create a page on the Internet that will completely copy the design of a similar VK page.
- Force the user to follow a link leading to a fake resource. This can be done using instant messengers or on the pages of other social networks. You can motivate the transition with the promise of an interesting publication, video or photo collection.
Important! To avoid losing your own page, you should always check the address of the resource where you are entering data. The VKontakte website is located on the “vk.com” domain; all other combinations (vkk.com, vc.com, etc.) are fake resources created to steal the accounts of inattentive users.
How can I recover my password on VK?
Let's look at the most popular ways to obtain data. To recover your VK password, you need to click on the link “ Can’t log in?”
":
Specify login
(email or phone) of the user and click “”:
If the data is correct, then VK will display a page with an avatar and full name. You need to press the "" button.
A code will be sent to the linked phone number. You need to enter it into the form and click “”.
All that remains is to come up with a new password for the social network.
By linking to a mobile phone or email
The easiest way to find out your VK password is by email. To do this, on the access recovery page, click the “ I DO NOT remember my login
” link. In the next window, you need to specify a link to the page, that is,
ID
:
The VK password recovery page will open.
After filling out the form to the specified Email
You will receive an email with further instructions.
Selection method
If the user knows the social network login, then you can find out the password for VK using the brute force method. Typically the password includes:
- date of birth; home or mobile phone number of yours (parents or children); last name of the user; gamer nickname; animal name; popular combinations, for example, 123456; the word “ Password
”.
You need to try each option in turn. In order for the user to always remember the password, it must be numbers, letters or symbols that are meaningful to him.
Useful Android applications for protecting and storing information
With the development of the World Wide Web, many users are faced with the need to store countless passwords from accounts to various Internet resources. And if back in the early 2000s it was possible to get by with just a couple of accounts, now almost each of us has several email accounts, pages on social networks, accounts on forums and, of course, plastic or virtual Visa and MasterCard cards. However, in order to remember the data of all this wealth, you need to have the brain of a Nobel laureate, or, of course, take a risk and use the same security code everywhere. Both options are good in their own way, and it is thanks to this that storage applications for reliable data protection appeared in one place and with a separate master code. We'll talk about them today.
Our selection includes universal data storage for Android. Some of them focus on simple information protection, some have additional functions, such as cloud synchronization or linking photos and videos. As always, we position the selection not as a rating or top downloads, but as a list of useful applications that are popular among users of our forum and Google Play.

There are a number of ways to help you find out the password for someone else’s page on VKontakte. Their complexity depends on how close the user is to the person who selects the password, what data is available about him, whether there is access to his computer, etc. You can find out the secret code yourself, showing ingenuity and cunning, or you can use special programs that which are both paid and free.
The easiest way to become the owner of a password is to look it up on the user’s PC. To do this, you need to go to the object’s page from his computer, which will automatically open after logging into the vk.com website and click the “Log Out” button. A combination encrypted with black symbols will appear in the “Password” column, which you should hover over. Then you need to right-click and select “view element code”. In the window that appears on the screen, you need to select the “input type” section and replace the word “password” with “text”. Now, instead of encrypted dots, the required combination will appear in the password line, allowing access to the page.
Using special software
But not only browsers store data about users, which the user kindly provides and stores.
Any program that requires you to enter a password and login also offers to remember this data so as not to enter it every time you start it.
Accordingly, there are special utilities that allow you to view this saved data. Such utilities work on the same principle, so let’s take the Password Cracker program as an example. It is distributed free of charge, and weighs a ridiculous 45 KB.
In the “Password” line in the Password Cracker utility window, the saved security key will appear in alphanumeric display.
Options for finding a password in VKontakte without access to someone else’s computer
You can find a password for a user account by trying to use the simplest combinations that people most often use as a secret code. These could be consecutive numbers - “1,2,3,4...”, “9,8,7.6...”, the letters “qwerty...” or “ytsken”, etc. You should also try to indicate as password, last name, first name, date of birth, phone number and other data that relates to the user’s personal information. If this method does not have an effect, you can try to enter these combinations in the Russian and English layout or specify them in reverse order.
If you can’t figure out the password yourself, you can turn to hackers for help, some of whom, for a fee, will open any combination, regardless of its complexity.
Ways to find out someone else's password in Contact using programs
In order to find out a person’s password, you can use special hacking programs or write it yourself. In the first case, you will need to find a suitable utility on the Internet, download it and install it on your computer. To select the required code, you need to indicate the user ID page number in the appropriate line and start the process. The program will automatically select a password based on the combinations of letters and numbers contained in it. Such utilities can be paid or free.
Having some knowledge in programming, you can write the program yourself. An effective method is phishing, i.e. creating a site that is a VK double, which looks the same as the official resource, but has a different address. Having accessed his page, the user himself will indicate his login and password, which will immediately be received by the person who wrote the utility.
A lot of girls (and guys too) write letters to me in which the phrase “ forgot my password in contact”
"
In this post you will find detailed instructions in pictures on how to recover a forgotten password in Contact.
But first, a short digression from the topic
.
In this post we will look at one of the most difficult situations
, the one in which you have forgotten not only your contact password, but also your login, and also do not have access to your mailbox and phone number. A complete list of methods for recovering a VKontakte password can be found in a separate article.
Well, now let's begin.
Why are VKontakte pages hacked?
- Most often, the reason for wanting to gain access to someone else's page is banal jealousy
. Someone just wants to test the fidelity of their other half. - The next reason may be the attacker’s desire to take possession of secret information
to use it for their own purposes. For example, this could be some kind of commercial information. Or information, using which the attacker can to some extent control the actions of the owner of the hacked page (including extorting money through banal blackmail). - Often VK pages can be hacked to send spam from them
. - Other reasons...
I forgot the password for a contact, what should I do?
Go to the website
vk.com
.
On the left, under the windows for entering your login and password, there is a link “ Can’t log in?
" Click on it.
On the page that opens, we are asked to enter our login, email address or phone number to which the contact page is linked. Since we agreed above that this option is not suitable for us, we look under the window for the following line: “ If you don’t remember any data at all, try clicking here
"At the end of which is a link that we need to click on (see screenshot).
Now a window like this appears. Here we either enter a link to our page, or again lower our eyes just below the field to enter the address and look for the following line: “ If you don’t know the address, you can find your page in the people search. Click here
».
The standard contact search opens. Through it we look for our profile in contact, the password for which we want to remember and click on the link “This is my page”.
Now we are taken to a form that must be filled out in order to recover the password in contact.
First, indicate the old and new phone numbers. note
that you need to indicate in international format (via +7, +3, etc. depending on the country in which you live).
If you have access to your old phone number, you can enter the same numbers in these fields. We fill out the email fields in the same way. The last field “ Old password
” can be left blank. But it is better to enter the password that you previously used to log in.
Now you should receive an SMS on your phone with a confirmation code, which you must enter in the window that appears. (If the SMS does not arrive within three minutes, click on the link “ resend code
»)
A window appears telling us that the page will be unblocked on such and such a date and at such and such a time.
In a day
An SMS with a new password should be sent to your number, which will be duplicated in a letter to the previously specified email address.
As you can see, recover a forgotten password in contact
not that difficult. We go in and enjoy our success, trying not to forget our passwords.
Everyone should know how to find out the password from VK. Many users run the risk of forgetting a treasured combination of symbols - people increasingly rely on data stored in applications and browsers and do not trust memory. If you can't remember the password to log into your account, the text is for you. We tell you where to look at the code and what additional steps to take for safety.
There is only one password control unit on the website. To search on a computer or from the full version of the page in a mobile browser:
- log in to the system using your credentials;
- Find your avatar and name in the upper right corner, click;
- in the drop-down list, select “Settings”;
- In “General”, click “Change” next to the password.
Here you can come up with a new combination. It’s just that you won’t be able to save the changes without the old password – the code will be required to confirm the action.
Password recovery
1. To recover your VKontakte password, on the main page, under the panel for entering credentials, follow the link “Forgot...?”.
2. On the new page, enter your login, phone number or e-mail. Click “Next”.
Attention! If you do not have access to the phone and do not remember your credentials, click the “... click here” link located on the bottom line, under the “Next” button. Fill out the form and click the “Submit Application” button (you may be able to recover via your old login, via email, or your old and new mobile phone numbers).
3. Click “I’m not a robot” to pass protection against bots.
4. If the screen asks “Is this the page...?” Your first and last name and your avatar will appear, click the “Yes, this is the right page” button.
If data from another (not your) profile appears, click “Go back” and follow the instructions of the service.
5. Wait for an SMS from VKontakte with a verification code. Enter it in the field that opens and click “Change password.”
6. In the lines “New...” and “Repeat...” enter a new password.
7. Click “Change...”.
How to view your VK password on your computer
The control unit in the profile does not allow you to see the password, as well as the login. For security reasons, the data is not displayed. But if you have forgotten the combination, you can look for it inside the default browser selected for use.
The problem is that such information is stored by permission. If you are figuring out how to find out your VK password, for prevention, allow your home browser to collect such data. This way, the required combination will be inserted into the field automatically when you log in and will not be lost.
Google Chrome
The surest way to view the code from a page in Google Chrome is to go to the settings. To do this, click on the three vertical dots in the upper right corner and find the corresponding item in the menu.
In the tab that opens, select “Passwords” and in the “Saved Sites” list, look for Vk.com.
Then, for the login you are interested in, click on the eye icon - and symbols will appear in place of the stars.
Opera
In Opera, the menu is located in the upper left corner, opens by clicking on the logo.
In settings, click on “Advanced” and then go to “Security”.
Once on the page, scroll down and open the passwords.
As in the previous browser, saved combinations appear in the resolution section.
In Mozilla Firefox
The instructions “How to view your password on VK in Mozilla” are approximately similar. To get data:
The actions will display a list of saved credentials. All you have to do is select the ones you need and find out.
Yandex browser
In Yandex.Browser, you need three similar dashes in the upper right corner. Under them, among other items, settings are hidden. Click on the appropriate section, and then go to “Passwords”. Enter the “Contact” address in the search bar and the collected logins will be displayed.
Click on the one you need. A new window with account information will appear on the page. Next to the code field, tap on the eye icon, then a hidden combination of symbols will appear in place of the asterisks.
Features of Smart Lock on Android
New versions of Android provide additional options for unlocking the device for owners (you can find the options in Settings - Security - Smart Lock).
- Physical contact - the phone or tablet is not blocked while you are in contact with it (information from the sensors is read). For example, you looked at something on your phone, turned off the screen, put it in your pocket - it does not block (since you are moving). If you put it on the table, it will be blocked in accordance with the auto-blocking parameters. Minus: if the device is pulled out of your pocket, it will not be blocked (as information from the sensors continues to flow).
- Safe locations—Specify locations where your device will not be blocked (requires location tracking to be enabled).
- Trusted devices—define devices that, when within Bluetooth range, will unlock your phone or tablet (requires Bluetooth enabled on Android and on a trusted device).
- Face recognition - automatic unlocking if the owner is looking at the device (front camera required). For successful unlocking, I recommend training the device on your face several times, holding it as you usually do (bending your head down towards the screen).
- Voice recognition—unblocking using the phrase “OK, Google.” To set up the option, you will need to repeat this phrase three times (when setting up, you need Internet access and the “Recognize Ok Google on any screen” option turned on); after completing the setup, you can turn on the screen to unlock and say the same phrase (Internet is not required when unlocking).
How to find out the password from VK using the page code
You can find out your or someone else's profile code through the page code. The method is simple, but only works with data saved in the browser:
- log out of your account;
- highlight the points under which the password is hidden;
- right-click and select “View Code”;
- when the page is open, double-click on Password in the code;
- write text instead of the word and press Enter.
The required combination of symbols will appear in place of the dots in the field.
How to find out your password in VK if you forgot, but have access to the page
You won’t be able to view the key inside VKontakte – from your phone or computer. To get the combination, go to the browser menu and look for the saved data according to the instructions above. If you are unlucky and no one has given permission to collect information, log out of your account and try to get the code through the developer code. The function definitely works in Google Chrome, but in others there may be problems.
If none of the above helps, try choosing a combination by brute force. This is especially true for people who use one or two or three passwords on all sites or create a code from memorable dates and important names.
