Setting up
To follow my step by step Tutorial you will need to have Notepad++ and of course Hacknet installed and running.

Notepad++ website: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/
New Account (Setting up Nr. 2)
Since you are messing around with the Save data, i recommend using a new account.

after that obey the Tutorial until u can finaly skip it with the terminal...
comands:
> ps (for listing all the running processes)
> kill 123 (123 stands for a PID)

after skipping the Tutorial it is important to SAVE!!!!

After the Session is saved close the Session.

Example:


Finding the Save Files
First we need to find our Account Datafiles.

Usually they are in (,at least at my PC):
"C:\User\USERNAME\Documents\My Games\Hacknet\Accounts"

in this folder there should be a .txt file named Accounts and a .xml files named save_URHACKNETUSER

If you have any trouble locating the file just search for the file save_URHACKNETUSER.xml

After finding the file open the xml-file with Notepad++ (rightclick openwith notepad++)


Example:









Manipulate the Data
In Notepad++ add all numbers between 1 - 90 (i dont exactly know how many pc there ar but 90 is fine to get all) into the <visible> tag which should be in one of the first lines in the file.

<visible> 1 2 3 4 .... 89 90 </visible>

after that press Ctrl-F to open up the search menue.
Go to the Search and Replace section.

search : known="False"
replace with : known="True"

and hit "replace all" (it says "Alle ersetzen" in my picture)

Finally SAVE !!!!!


Example:



Restart Session and Enjoy
Last but not least restart/continue your session in Hacknet with your new created account and enjoy the whole networkmap.

Also all Passwords and Usernames are known from now on for every System you can log into. They are displayed right under the login fields.

Example:
