View the login password on the screen

If I am logged on to the admin account but don't know the password, is there any way I can have windows display the current login password on the screen?
Maybe using command prompt?

Can't view it no. If your loged in as the admin you could go to user accounts and change the PW... NOT the windows way... you must do this the "IT" way

haha

and because of the posts above I guess I will keep my mouth shut lol

Are you trying to hack the account or just forgot the password? You cannot display the admin password but you can use a password recovery tool to reset your old password so you can change it.
Here are some site you can try:
forgot_administrator_password

password_recovery

No. You can not view the administrator password.
But, if you'd like, I can call Rogers Cable Communications Inc. and find out who's computer you are trying to subvert and let that person know about it.

Yes, you two look like neighbors, but your host comes up as Bell Canada. And it looks like you are on DSL.

After my posts, I don't suppose that we'll be hearing from the OP again, anyway. :D
