Hi,

Im at boarding school and have a laptop and desktop.
yesterday i got the 64 length key to acess the school network.
this was only on my laptop and i now need it on my desktop.
the school will give me the key again eventually..........
I would like to know if there is a way for me to find the key on my laptop as this would save time.
Im quite experienced with computers and such so please if anyone could tell me how to do this

Thanks in advance.

Sorry, not the right answer. Cracking WPA2 not so easy.

If you use windows zero config and enetred the PSK it will be in your reg. WZCOOK and other tools will reveal it. As Fihart mentioned if you want to break it you need to capture the 4-way handshake and then brute force it with a dictionary file.
