Hello guys,

This extension is avalaible for Firefox and Firefox-based browsers.

LINK: WShowPassword

Thanks for sharing, however I cannot trust external addons/extensions, unless developed by Mozilla themselves. Are there any alternates to this add-on?

This feature is available on Windows 8, 8.1 and 10, including Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7.

The Fermata eye like symbol ( the password reveal button ) have been introduced in Windows 8 . I believe this feature is mainly for the users who are using the Windows Tablets . It is quite difficult to retype to whole password if he made a mistake . So that I believe it should be mainly for the Windows 8 tablet users . Using the feature a user wouldn't have to delete the entire password and start all over again if he believes that he has made a mistake
However, some desktop and laptop users might feel that this feature can come in the way of their security and in that case disabling it altogether would be the best option.

@Huracan This is a signed extension: Show Password Field it is very similar, but there are some difference. This is the original informations about this extension:

View password fields in a readable format (i.e. reveal passwords that are contained in the fields) when the mouse rests on the same field for a configurable period of time.

If the mouse exits the field, or if the focus moves to another element, the password is hidden again.

You can also choose a color for the text and background that will be used when the password is revealed.

In my view, these things is better if you will be the only one use it and avoid others to look which may compromise easily. Hence use at your own risk.
