How do I see the password of the current user, c#

Question

I am developing a program in C# and I am having a problem with Windows credentials.

I need the program return me the user name and password.

using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
{
   string[] user = Convert.ToString(WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name).Split('\\');

   string userName = user[1];

   label1.Text = userName.ToString();
   label2.Text = passwd.ToString();

   //client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(userName, "1234"); //1234 = password
   //client.DownloadFile("http://**intranet**/servicosuporte/Documentos%20Partilhados/assistente_remoto.zip", @"C:\assistremoto.zip");
}

Answer 1

You are unable to access a user's password in this way. Passwords are not reversible, and are hashed. This is a one-way operation.

If you want to use the user's existing credentials, you can use:

System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials //for network

and

System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials //for local
