Author Topic: Can you view previous steam passwords?  (Read 903 times)



Why would would you ever need to?

You gotta remember what it was so you can change it back.
Or maybe it's like changing your Steam name to be funny, and then people can view it with some sort of alias.

If there was, it would be a huge security risk for you. People who see it could learn possible password trends.
And Valve is not stupid enough to do that.

OP is on someone elses steam and wants to be able to find out their passwords so they can hack them later.
Bad OP.

or OP is selling his steam account and doesnt want customer to see his passwords

speaking of which, who wants to buy my steam account for $600. it's got $2000 worth of games

That's a handicapped idea.

If you want to sell your account, liquidate all your good games into TF2 keys and them sell them online for cash.

I need to try and view my old passwords as when my steam got hacked so did origin, I think the passwords might have been the same.

you can't sell used steam games

Who wants to buy steam account? It has 2000 dollars worth of free games.


I didn't know that.

Damn :|

steam would lose a ton of money if they allowed that

you could just trade used games for other used games ad infinitum and as long as you had an small array of games valued at different prices up and down the board you'd never have to buy another game

Yeah, I guess that makes sense.

Thanks for the info though.

Steam shouldn't be storing your passwords as they are, they should do a one-way encryption; there's no way to get the password from its encrypted form without intense computer power.
