    View Windows Credentials Password in Credential Manager?

    Hi ,

    Kayece here, An Independent advisor and a user just like you. I will be happy to assist you today.

    In Windows credentials, you cannot view any passwords in this section because it saves authentication tokens rather than plain-text passwords. It does not have the same web credentials. You may try the steps provided in the article on the link below to see if you can manage to see your password using the classic interface of Stored User Names and Passwords, to manage saved passwords or access Windows Credential Manager from PowerShell.

    I hope this is helpful. If you have any additional questions, please let me know and I will gladly assist you.

    Managing Credentials with no password

    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 ?

    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....
