| 1406110 | 2015-08-08 06:47:00 | You have just pointed out why Wi-Fi sense is better If you're not using Wi-Fi Sense you can do what you've described If you are using Wi-Fi Sense to share your network, the password is not persisted on the device in the Wi-Fi dialog for it to be obtained. Maybe not, but I just got another persons laptop, and turned on the contacts, I'm in their contacts , managed to jump straight onto the wifi, no password, no prompts nothing and could download what ever I wanted. Its a stupid insecure addition. Sorry to hijack this thread BUT Question: off topic, but is there any reason you are refusing to answer the question posted earlier on asking you directly on the main forum ? Should be a simple answers for a person with the experience, and working for MS. pressf1.pcworld.co.nz |

It is more secure than your contact telling you the password or writing it on a piece of paper . |
