Windows 10: Credential Manager Prompt after Login Win 10 Pro

After logging in with my user account, I'm prompted to insert a smart card via Credential Manager. I then have to cancel out of the pop up about 5 times before it goes away for good. This happens every time after I login.


I do need to use my smart card, but it's only when I'm logging into my work email via OWA. This just started after using OWA for the first time and plugging in my card reader.


Any help to get rid of the popup after login would be helpful.

Win 10 PC accessing a Win 10 Everyone share prompted for credentials


I have a new Windows 10 Home computer and I've selected a folder and shared it. I've added Everyone to the Share Permissions list with Full Control.






I've selected "Turn off password protected sharing" in the Advance Sharing Center.






When I try to access the share with a Windows 7 laptop in the home it connects right away without a prompt for credentials. When I try to access the share from another Windows 10 device (Surface) there is a prompt for credentials and I am unable to access the shared folder. There are no common account names between machines on my home network.

On the Windows 10 machine which is trying to connect I have run Net use * /DELETE and removed all Windows Credentials using the Credentials Manager then rebooted both machines a few times. Still though the Windows 7 machine can access the share with no credentials and the Windows 10 machine can't access it at all.

My goal is to get the share working for the Windows 10 machine as it works for the Windows 7. Full access, no prompt for credentials. I've workaround steps that will provide access so that type of information isn't needed.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post and any help would be most appreciated.

 

Win 10 PC accessing a Win 10 Everyone share prompted for credentials

Here is the solution for this issue :

1 Right click on the folder that you want to share
2. Go to Properties
3. Go to Security Tab then click Edit on group and usernames
4. Click Add and on the user and group window click advance
5. Click Find Now and look for Everyone on the Search results, Click OK to close the window and OK again
6. Give the control you need for Everyone and click "OK"

That should make that folder accessible without prompting for windows credentials

 

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 !
