    Edge is the most terrible for remember passwords


    But Chrome and Apple are excellent. So Microsoft builds this fancy Edge browser. I understand it will save passwords which it fails miserably. I very seldom get any offer to save a password. If it offers to save one for a financial institution it won't work. I can't imagine what is behind all this failure when Chrome and Apple can make it work flawlessly. And don't write back to saying go to setting, advanced setting, turn on offer to save passwords and manage form entries. I've done this a hundred times already. Just admit it doesn't work.

  2. Edge won't remember Gmail passwords

    Hi Ujjal,



    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community.



    Before assisting further, I would like to ask you a question:

    • Did you check the option “Remember the password” option at the sign in page?


    I suggest you clear the Clear browsing data option of Microsoft Edge and check if you face the issue.

    To do so perform the steps below.



    • Open Edge browser and click on the More actions icon i.e.“” located on the top right corner of the window.
    • Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    • Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files
      and click on Clear.
    • Close the browser and login to Gmail account and check if the issue is resolved.


    Write back to us for further assistance, we will be happy to assist



    Thank you.

    Email clients not remembering passwords

    Hi all

    A friends computer will not remember his gmail password. He used to use outlook, and seeing that I use thunderbird and it would be easier to troubleshoot I installed that for him. Now that was working for a few weeks, and now the same problem is occuring.

    We are 100% sure the password is correct, as we can access the email account through webmail, but the local clients will not remember the correct password. Of course the 'Remember password' button is checked, but still no good.

    It returns with incorrect password.

    Any suggestions?

  4. Edge is the most terrible for remember passwords

    Microsoft Edge doesn't remember secure passwords

    I found a solution. In Microsoft Edge, I went into ... settings, advanced settings, privacy and services, manage passwords. Here there was a list of websites, one of which was a website I wanted Edge to remember my password for. I clicked on the website
    and entered the password for it, saved it and the next time I went to that website in Edge, I did not have to enter the password.
