Hi,
I have a gmail account and have forgot the password. The login info is in Live mail on my pc. Is there a way to get it so i can login from a web browser?

Yes, use the Gmail password recovery form.

I have used that but I can not remember the info they want. I created the email a long time ago. I can still use it as the login info is in Live mail. I was hoping there would be a tool to get the password out of live mail.

The only thing you can do then is contact Google about it to verify you are the account holder.

It will be recoverable - the mail client has to have it in plaintext at some point to auth with gmail.

I did a bit of searching and found an app that says it can do it but the demo only dose the first 2 digits :-(

Hope I dont have to buy an app to recover it.
