Windows 10: Edge Passwords

Hi. My father in laws PC crashed after an update.

Started off with the Access denied problem - which I couldnt resolved.

Now is in a loop on his account - doesnt fully load. Screen just goes off - and on - and off -and ........


I can log in to an Admin account though.

Is there a way I can recover his passwords from the Edge browser on his account from the Admin account?


Thanks....

Edge Search Does Not Permit Change of Region


I got these suggestions from the Microsoft Community forum.No. 1 worked for me:

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.
We have reproduce the issue here and we are able to access non-regional search for google using Microsoft Edge.
I would suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps.
Step 1:
Clear browsing data option of Microsoft Edge and check if you face the issue. To do so perform the steps below.

1. Click on the More actions icon next to the feedback icon present on top right corner of the Project Spartan homepage.
2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.

Step 2:
I suggest you to create a new user account and check if the issue occurs.

Step 3:
It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.

 

How can I get Edge to retain one of my passwords that it won't hold?

Ever since the latest update a few days ago, Edge no longer remembers my eBay password even though in Settings, Advanced Settings, Manage Passwords, "save passwords" is selected, and even though eBay is listed in the saved password list. Each time I login to eBay, I have to again select "save password" but Edge doesn't remember it when I later return to eBay. Edge does remember all my other passwords, except for eBay.
Has this happened to anyone else, and any suggestions how to fix this?
Thanks.
