MSN Password Recovery

MSN Password Recovery is a handy application designed to retrieve the lost password for your Hotmail or MSN account. It comes in handy when you need to recover your login information from instant messaging applications.

Since most of the Internet browser and instant messaging clients have the option to remember the user’s credentials, it is very simple to forget a password that you have only entered a few times.

Everything is fine until you need to change your computer, use a different browser or reinstall the operating system. All these operations leave you with no other choice than to reset or recover the password from the application.

Since the password reset can take a lot of time and requires additional information, this tool aims to help you retrieve the credentials by simply scanning the data stored by the IM app. After the scan, a list of users and passkeys is displayed in the main window in order to be copied to the clipboard.

Unlike some of the similar tools that can only find the passphrase from a single application, this tool is compatible with multiple IM programs used by Hotmail. Since it supports MSN Messenger, MSN Explorer, Windows Messenger and Windows Live Messenger it can be used on many systems for scanning the saved passwords.

During our test, the program successfully detected the user and the password length for the latest version of Windows Live Messenger which makes it a good choice for recovering your credentials.

In the scan results one can also find the credentials of other users that have accessed their account on the same computer. This raises a privacy issue and should also make you think twice before saving your password when using a public computer.

If you are having troubles remembering the Hotmail account password, try the MSN Password Recovery before resetting it.
