The vast majority of user’s authentication is accomplished using text passwords. Textual passwords are easy to remember and hard to guess. Sometimes users forget password, to recollect the forgotten password several authentication mechanisms are available to the users, even though some of them are unable to recall the forgotten passwords. We proposed a system to recollect the password by displaying the hint without revealing any information to the user. By displaying hints the numbers of failed login attempts were decreased and memory recall of textual passwords is increased.
