You cannot decrypt a password. A password is hashed, not encrypted. You can only compare if two hashed passwords are the same thing but you cannot get the original value from the hash.
That's for security :)

Hi guys, i want ask to you. I'm want to decrypt a laravel account password. but i'm find this problem. How to fix that? i'm followed this tutorial but failed https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/encryption#using-the-encrypter
My code is
php use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Crypt; use Illuminate\Contracts\Encryption\DecryptException; ?>
php $unhash = Crypt::decrypt(Auth::user()->password); ?>
php echo $unhash; ?>
And then the error code is :
The payload is invalid. (View: C:\xampp\htdocs\pandawa\resources\views\admin\myprofil\update.blade.php)
