1.Open up ES File Explorer or Root Explorer.
2.If you use ES File Explorer, you need to enable the root explorer feature in the app. To do so, tap on the list icon on the top left corner, scroll down to “Root Explorer” under the dropdown “Tools” and enable it. You should now get a root permission request via Superuser or SuperSU(depending what you have installed). Once you grant the request, you can use the app to access root folders.
3.From your phone’s root folder, navigate todata > misc > wifi.
4.Look for a file with the namewpa_supplicant.conforwep_supplicant.conf. Since mostnetworks use WPA encryption, you’ll probably find the password you’re looking for in the wpa_supplicant file.
5.Selecting the file should open it up in the file explorer’s own text editor. Now, you can simply scrolldown the text file to search for the network you’re looking for (next to “ssid”) and find its password next to the term “psk”.
That’s it! I hope you were able to go through all the steps without any problems. If so, feel free to drop a comment below.
