How to do passwords in Fallout 4
Cracking those pesky terminal passwords in Fallout 4 is all about the hacking mini-game. You gotta pick a word that seems right, and the game tells you how many letters in that word are correctly placed. Use that feedback to narrow down the options. It's like a deadly game of 'Guess Who?' but with more radiation. If you mess up four times, the terminal locks you out for 10 seconds, but no biggie, just give it another go!

Honestly, sometimes I just randomly click until it works. Not the most efficient strategy, but hey, it adds to the adventure.
Just click on words that look good, lol. Seriously, it's not rocket science. Pick a word, get the likeness score, and then use process of elimination. If you get locked out, wait 10 seconds and try again. Easy peasy.
