Windows 10: Edge Browser

I see that Edge has the ability to store login and passwords you use to log into web sites. My question is how well protected are those login and passwords in Edge? Encrypted? Wondering before I start using this service. I would love to get rid of LastPass Premium and all the silly things it does wrong! Constantly causing me issues!

:)

 

Why does home page somes up in secure mode?

The Edge browser home page is set to Bing. However, when Edge browser is open the address is https://www.bing.com. Why does not Edge browser open with the page in the settings?

 

edge browser will only connect via vpn

I have Mozilla, explorer and edge browsers. Edge browser will
only connect via my vpn (astril). The other browsers will connect with vpn on or off, how can I get Edge to connect with vpn off?

 

Don't all web browsers have this capability?

 

Myself any storing of passwords, anytime is taking a risk.

 

Even in an encrypted file? I would think that would be secure enough. Just my opinion. I was wanting to know for sure just how secure the Edge browser is, especially the saving of passwords item.

 

I just never store my bank or credit card web sites with my password, just type it in each time Same with my e-mail. Not worried about these web sites like this Win10 forum.

 

This may sound archaic but I write them down in a ledger. I remember the more frequently used ones.

 

How would you guys feel about an Office 365 encrypted Excel spreadsheet? It is encrypted to 256 bits. I thought that was pretty safe my self. I value others opinions too.

 

Years ago i used PGP but today with high speed computers and many hackers,i feel nothing is really secure on the internet. IMHO the less put on the net and your own computer the better off you are.
