2. Go to User Accounts.
3. Click on Credential Manager.
4. In the Credential Manager window, you will see two sections: Web Credentials and Windows Credentials.
5. Click on Web Credentials to view your saved website passwords.

You will see a list of websites and their associated usernames and passwords.

6. Click on the website for which you want to change the username or password.

Click on Edit.

7. Enter the new username and password.
8. Click on Save.

These steps allow you to easily modify or add usernames and passwords for websites saved in Credential Manager.
