Windows Password

Question

Hi, first of all, I want to thank you for the very good apps you have built.
Now, I have a question, How can I protect my saved passwords from others?

I'm using "Microsoft Edge browser" on my work machine and the admin can change the Windows Password at any time and by providing a windows password he can see all saved passwords.
Can you please implement a master password (or maybe it's implemented and I don't know how to use it) for the saved Passwords with NO relation to the Windows Password?

Thanks
Eric R.

Answer 1

Your web passwords are stored in Credentials Manager.

Answer 2

Hi @Eric R

There's no such "master password" in Edge now.

What you ask in the question is a feature request. I suggest that you can provide your feedback in Edge using Send feedback (Alt+Shift+I) which is a more appropriate way to provide feedback.

Thanks for your understanding.
