    Managing Passwords Problem


    Greetings,


    I am using Windows 7 Pro and Internet Explorer 11.

    Despite various instructions - both video and written to locate where all passwords are stored, I don't see to have the same options mentioned in these tutorials.

    I don't have a Manage Passwords option in my Internet Explorer 11 options menu with Content/Auto Complete and I don't have Web Credentials option in Credential Manager.

    So where are all the passwords stored that Internet Explorer asked if I want to save to automatically remember so I don't have to retype my passwords each time?

    I would greatly appreciate any assistance with this.

    Thanks,

    HM

    Neither do I. I found this that might help-

    I wish I could answer your question, but, I don't now nor will I ever use I.E. anything.
    You might just be a lot happier with Mozilla Firefox. It remembers all my Log In passwords for me.


    Good Luck Mate!

    IE 11 isn't updated any more.
    For may reasons you should use another browser.
    I don't like Chrome as it loads on the background and spy everything you do.
    I use Firefox

    Thanks to those who have responded.

    Even if take IE11 out of it (or Firefox, Chrome), shouldn't there still be a Web Credentials option in Credential Manager on Windows 7?

    Download the IE PassView zip file from here-

    https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/intern..._password.html

    Extract the .exe to a folder of your choice.

    Run it. It works for me but dpesn't offer a way to edit the registry to edit passwords.
