    Managing Credentials with no password

    How do I access my password list - when I am running my PC without any Windows login or password ?

    I have built my laptop using Windows 10 / 64 - without the need/requirement for any login or password

    In order to see a Web Credentials password, you are required to enter a Windows credentials password - which I do not have (because I have built the PC without the requirement for such a login) .....(although I have tried my Hotmail login - which gives me
    access to email but fails to give me access to Web credentials)

    What can I do to view my password list ?

    And Eashwar Kumar - rather weirdly (for an IT pro) asked me the following - yesterday

    1. I am referring to the passwords held in the CREDENTIAL MANAGER (in the control panel)

    2. I am referring to ALL of my passwords

    3. The Credential Manager is independent of browser !

    Managing Credentials with no password

    I am referring to the CREDENTIAL MANAGER - which, as I am logged in to my laptop - with NO user name / password (I chose to bypass this at build) - doesn't let me view MY OWN list of passwords !!!

    How do I view MY OWN password list ?

    Also - why was the response above - marked as THE ANSWER ?

    It was NOT the answer and I feel that in assuming that it was the answer is PRESUMPTUOUS !!

    I have removed this assumption....

    Managing Credentials with no password

    Hello,

    Thank you for bringing up your query on Microsoft Community.


    • What are you referring to? When you say “using no user account and therefore no password ?”
    You can use Credential Manager to store credentials, such as user names and passwords that you use to log on to websites or other computers on a network.

    To access Windows Credentials follow:

    Control Panel >
    All Control Panel Items
    > Credential Manager.

    Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance. We are happy to assist you.
