One scan. Every credential.
Ready to restore.

When you reinstall Windows, your user profile is deleted along with every credential it contains. Browser logins, WiFi keys, software licenses, email credentials and FTP accounts — all gone unless you export them first.

Advanced Password Recovery Suite scans all credential storage locations in Windows in a single pass and exports everything to a portable backup file. No need to run five separate tools.

Every credential type, one tool

All processing stays on your computer — nothing is transmitted online at any point.

Software license keys

Windows, Office, Adobe, AutoCAD, WinZip and 10,000+ installed programs extracted from the registry.

Browser passwords

Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Opera, Brave, Vivaldi and 70+ Chromium browsers. Export to CSV, TXT or clipboard.

WiFi network keys

WPA2 and WPA3 passwords for every saved network. No router reset required — read directly from Windows.

Email credentials

Outlook, Thunderbird, Windows Mail and other email clients that store account passwords locally.

FTP credentials

FileZilla site manager entries, WinSCP sessions, SmartFTP, CoreFTP and other saved server profiles.

Windows Credential Manager

RDP logins, network share passwords and stored Windows authentication entries.

Backup Windows, Office & software activation keys

Software license keys are stored in the Windows registry. A clean install wipes the entire registry — along with every activation code for Windows, Office, Adobe, games and any other locally licensed program. Save them first.

This is especially critical for software without an online account — older Office versions, Adobe products, professional tools and classic games where the registry key is the only reactivation path.

  • 10,000+ programs supported — Windows, Microsoft Office, Adobe Creative Suite, AutoCAD, WinZip, VMware and more
  • Classic games included — Battlefield, Command & Conquer, Need for Speed and hundreds of older titles
  • Export to text or CSV — clear backup file listing every product name and its activation key
  • Also scans external drives — recover keys from an old or non-bootable drive connected to another PC

Browser passwords, WiFi keys, email & FTP logins

Beyond software licenses, a Windows reinstall also wipes browser passwords, WiFi network keys, email account credentials, FTP server logins, and Windows Credential Manager entries — all in one format operation.

Advanced Password Recovery Suite recovers all of these in a single scan, so you never need to reset accounts manually after moving to a new PC.

  • Browser passwords — Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Opera, Brave, Vivaldi and 70+ Chromium variants, export to CSV or TXT
  • WiFi network keys — WPA2 and WPA3 passwords for every saved network, no router reset required
  • Windows Credential Manager — saved RDP logins, network share passwords and system authentication entries
  • Email client credentials — Outlook, Thunderbird and Windows Mail account logins and server settings

From download to backup in minutes

No setup, no registration. Scan, review, export.

1

Download & install

Download the free trial and install on your Windows PC. No account needed. The trial scans your system and shows everything that can be recovered before you decide to purchase.

2

Select & scan

Choose what to recover — browser passwords, WiFi keys, software licenses, email logins, FTP credentials — or run a full scan across all categories at once. Takes seconds.

3

Export & save

View all recovered credentials in a clear table. Export to CSV or TXT, or copy specific items to clipboard. Done before your reinstall begins, safely stored on a USB drive.

Important: Run the scan before formatting. Once Windows is reinstalled, the encryption keys that protect your stored credentials are permanently deleted — recovery is not possible after the fact.

Yes. The software reads WPA, WPA2 and WPA3 keys stored in your Windows wireless network history — no router access or reset needed. Every previously connected network and its password is listed.
Yes. After a clean Windows install the system encryption keys change permanently. Browsers, WiFi networks and email clients can no longer decrypt previously stored credentials. You must export them before formatting — there is no recovery path after the fact.
Select "Mail" from the recovery menu and click Recover. The software scans for stored credentials across Microsoft Outlook, Windows Mail, Thunderbird, Opera Mail and other clients that save passwords locally.
Strongly recommended. Major in-place upgrades, disk replacements or profile corruption can all remove stored credentials. Running a backup before any significant system change takes two minutes and prevents potential permanent data loss.
Yes, completely. All processing happens locally on your computer — no passwords are transmitted anywhere. The software uses read-only access and never modifies system files. It is digitally signed with a verified publisher certificate and has been in continuous development for 8+ years.
Download the free trial first — it scans your system and shows exactly what can be recovered before you pay anything. If the trial shows your data, the paid version will export it. If the trial finds nothing, don't buy. This way there's no risk.

Complete backup before
reinstalling Windows

Before formatting your PC, all saved credentials exist only in the current Windows user profile — encrypted with keys permanently deleted during a clean install. After formatting, there is no recovery path.

Advanced Password Recovery Suite performs a full credential scan across all storage locations and exports everything into readable backup files: browser passwords from Chrome, Edge and Firefox; WiFi network keys; Outlook and Thunderbird email credentials; FileZilla FTP logins; Windows Credential Manager entries; and software license keys. One scan, one export.

Transfer accounts to a new computer

When moving to a new PC, credentials stored on the old Windows installation are completely inaccessible — browsers, WiFi profiles, email clients and applications all store logins locally, not in the cloud. Export all credentials to a portable backup, copy to USB, and restore access immediately after setup on the new machine — no manual resets required for any account.
