What's the password?


NEW MICROSOFT EDGE CANARY FEATURE WILL AUTOSAVE YOUR PASSWORDS

You may never need to remember a password again.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

 * Microsoft Edge Canary has a new "save passwords automatically" feature.
 * It's optional and can be enabled within the password section of Edge's
   settings.
 * Not everyone has this feature available to them.

Those of you who are tired of manually typing in passwords or giving Edge
permission over and over again to save them on your behalf can rest easy, as a
helpful new feature may be on its way to standard Edge. It's a "save passwords
automatically" feature that's recently snuck into Edge Canary.

Not everyone can see the option at present, so you may not have access to the
feature even if you're on Canary. But if you are one of the folks Microsoft has
chosen, you can find the fresh tool within the passwords subsection of Edge's
settings. From there, you should see a toggle-able checkbox to enable automatic
password saving.

The feature was spotted by Leopeva64-2 over on Reddit.

Edge is always testing new features, so there's no guarantee you'll see this
password-saving tool in the standard release anytime soon. And Microsoft doesn't
only try out these sorts of things for Edge, it does it with all its products,
including Windows 11 and search engine Bing. If you come across a feature you
really like or dislike, here's how to submit feedback in Microsoft Bing. Windows
and Edge also have feedback options where you can sound off your thoughts on
Microsoft's experiments.



You don't have to limit your feedback to new things, either. If you're not a fan
of existing staples of any of the company's products, you can still share
thoughts in the hopes that Microsoft will revise something tried and true to be
better down the line.


MICROSOFT EDGE

Whether you want the most stable build or one that keeps you on the bleeding
edge (huehuehue), there's a version of the browser for everyone.

 * Free at Microsoft
 * Free at Microsoft (Beta)
 * Free at Microsoft (Dev)
 * Free at Microsoft (Canary)
