How to view the asterisk password saved in IE8 browser_html/css_WEB-ITnose

Today my classmate asked me how to read the asterisk password saved in IE browser.
He said that his campus network login account and password were saved in the IE browser, and later he forgot the password.

I have always used Google Chrome. I can directly right-click the password field, inspect the element, and change password to text to display the password.

Is the IE browser an F12 review element? How can I see the asterisk password?

Reply to the discussion (solution)

IE8 or above , F12 can inspect elements, but below IE8, it seems not possible.
After finding the password element, follow the method you said and change password to text to see if it works.

F12 can inspect the element if IE8 and above, but it seems not possible if it is below IE8.

Even after changing it, it still doesn’t work.

You can’t directly check the value ok Thank you. . . It really can.

Can you provide the complete script? It’s a very practical method
