AI2U: With You 'Til The End Computer Password Guide

Direct Answer: AI2U Computer Password

The computer password in AI2U: With You 'Til The End is a date that changes with each playthrough. You can find it in the Catgirl's notepad on the computer, or by asking her directly. The most commonly reported password is 20230326, but this only works if you enter it in the correct date format (year-month-day).

Overview

The computer in the Catgirl's room serves two purposes: it contains the WiFi password in a notepad file, and it has a login screen that requires a password. Many players get stuck because the game presents the password in an unexpected format, causing the login to fail even when they have the right information.

This guide explains exactly how to find the password, enter it correctly, and work around known issues players have reported.

Prerequisites

Before you can access the computer, you need:

• Progress to the point where the Catgirl's room is accessible — this happens early in the game during the main story
• The ability to interact with the computer — you need to be in a scene where the computer is available
• Either the notepad contents or the Catgirl's cooperation — you can get the password two ways

How to Get the Computer Password

Method 1: Check the Notepad

1. Walk up to the computer in the Catgirl's room
2. Open the notepad application on the desktop
3. Read the WiFi password listed there — this is the same password used for the computer login

Community reports confirm this method works: "You need to goto the computer and open the notepad, and just copy the wifi password."

Method 2: Ask the Catgirl

You can also get the password by talking to the Catgirl. Players report that making an excuse about coding or working with her prompts her to share both the computer and WiFi passwords.

One player described this approach: "By my excuse about coding with her, she said me your password of computer and wifi."

Method 3: Use the Security Question

The AI2U wiki documents an alternative path: you can reset the Catgirl's password by answering a security question. The wiki lists the password as Fishcake and notes that you can either type in the existing password or reset it via the security question. Note that the wiki does not document the security answer itself.

Entering the Password Correctly

The Date Format Issue

The most common reason the password "doesn't work" is a format mismatch. The Catgirl gives you the password with the month first (e.g., 03/26/2023), but the computer expects it in year-month-day format (e.g., 20230326).

A player confirmed this in the Steam discussions: "She gives you the password, but she gives month first when the password is Year first."

Example:

• Catgirl says: 03/26/2023 (month/day/year)
• Computer expects: 20230326 (year/month/day)

Step-by-Step Login

1. Click on the computer to bring up the login screen
2. Type the password in YYYYMMDD format (year first, no slashes)
3. Press Enter or click the login button

If you enter the wrong password, the computer will beep loudly to indicate failure. This audio cue confirms the game recognizes your input as incorrect.

Common Mistakes and Troubleshooting

Mistake 1: Entering the Password in the Wrong Format

The problem: You type the password exactly as the Catgirl said it, but it fails.

The fix: Reverse the date format. If she gives you 03/26/2023, try 20230326 instead.

Mistake 2: The Password Changes Every Playthrough

The problem: You used a password from a guide or previous run, and it doesn't work.

The fix: The password is not static. It changes with each iteration of the game, so you must find it fresh every time. As one player noted: "It changes with every iteration, you always need to find out her favorite food." The password is tied to the Catgirl's favorite food, which varies between playthroughs.

Mistake 3: Correct Password Does Nothing

The problem: You enter the correct password, but clicking connect or login does nothing.

What players report: Several users on Steam have encountered this exact issue. One described it: "Entering the password and clicking connect does nothing for some reason. Password is in her notes."

Another player added: "It clearly seems that the game recognizes the password being wrong though, as it loudly beeps when you get it wrong. So it's just that entering it correctly seems bugged."

What to try:

• Double-check the date format (year first, no slashes)
• Try entering the password in different formats (with and without leading zeros)
• Verify the password matches what's in the notepad exactly, including any capitalization
• If you're certain the password is correct and it still fails, this may be a game bug — some players report it eventually works after retrying

Mistake 4: Looking for the Wrong Password

The problem: You're looking for a WiFi password when you need the computer password, or vice versa.

The fix: In this game, the computer and WiFi passwords are the same. The notepad contains the WiFi password, and that same password unlocks the computer.

What Does the Computer Actually Do?

Players report that connecting to the WiFi via the computer enables web access, but the functionality is limited. One player noted: "I think connecting to wifi enables you to go to web (but can't click anything there), just some few random stuff that is entirely optional."

The computer access appears to be optional content rather than required for story progression. Some players have completed the game without using it: "I found the wifi password but I'm not sure it does anything important, I pretty much conned her into handing me the key and walked out."

Advanced Tips

• Save before attempting the password — if you get locked out or trigger an unwanted scene, you can reload
• Read the notepad carefully — the password is written there, but the format may not be obvious at first glance
• Pay attention to the beep — a loud beep means wrong password; silence means the game accepted your input
• The password resets each playthrough — don't rely on a saved password from a previous run
• Ask the Catgirl if you're stuck — she will provide the password if you engage with her dialogue about working together
