RECOVER FORGOTTEN INTERNET USERNAMES AND PASSWORDS IN EDGE IN WINDOWS 11

Sometimes you just can’t remember what your username or password is for a
specific website, but Microsoft’s Edge web browser in Windows 11 can help with
this.  Open Settings in Edge by clicking the three dots icon near the top right
corner of the window, and in the Profiles settings you’ll see an option
labelled Passwords.



Clicking this will present an option for Edge to save passwords for you.  This
helps you recover forgotten passwords, but also means Edge can automatically
fill in passwords for you on websites.



When passwords are being saved, scrolling down this page will reveal the lost of
all your saved passwords, along with their associated usernames.  To reveal a
password you can click the eye icon to its right, and you will be asked to enter
your main Windows password, PIN, or use Windows Hello just to authenticate it’s
really you.



Each password has a three dots icon to its right and you can click this to get
further options, such as updating the password if Edge has the wrong one saved,
copy the password so you can paste it elsewhere, or delete the password.



Learn how to find your way around Windows 11, make it easier to use, and how you
can get more done with your PC with Mike Halsey’s book “Windows 11 Made Easy“,
now on sale from Apress, Amazon, and all good book sellers.

HOW TO SWITCH SEAMLESSLY FROM CHROME TO EDGE IN WINDOWS 11
