  1. How Do I Search Long List Of Web Credentials In Credential Manager?


    My Windows 10 ro is currently Version 1607 (OS Build 14393.1715). My web browser is IE11.

    In Control Panel > Credential Manager I have, over time, accumulated a very long list of Web Passwords. When I tried to search for the URL substring "amazon", I could not find a way to locate it (can't even highlight any line(s) for text copy), except for an exhaustive line-by-line search.

    Is there any way to search the Web Passwords column?

    :)

  2. How Do I Re-add Web Credential In WIndows 10 Once It is Removed?

    THIS DOES NOT ANSWER THE QUESTION BUT SIMPLY CHASES ME IN CIRCLE.

    Please re-read my original question. I have no trouble getting to Credential Manager>Web Credentials; which is what you explained how to do.

    My problem is that I deleted ("removed") in Manage Credentials>Web Credentials a Web Credential with a typographical error (since I saw no edit function) and now
    I cannot figure out how to recreate the Web Credential with the correct information. The webpage no longer asks if I want to save password and there is no way that I can find to create a new web credential in Credential Manager>Web Credential.
    It appears that once a web credential for a website is "removed" it can no longer be re-created.

    (I do see that one can create a new windows credential in Credential Manager>Windows Credentials [there is a hotspot "Add a windows credential], but I need to create a "web" credential not a windows credential.)

    WINDOWS 10 MAKES SO MANY ACTIONS VERY DIFFICULT, OBSCURE OR IMPOSSIBLE; I need help on how to solve this as this is either obscure or impossible. I think that what I want to do might be impossible based on some web searches I have done that indicates MS
    for some strange reason decided to remove the capability to edit or re-create a removed web credential.

    Microsoft Edge, Windows Web Credentials Manager - Exporting Passwords. Need Help Please - Thank you! How Do I Search Long List Of Web Credentials In Credential Manager? :)

    Do you really suggest that one should navigate to tons of websites and use their "Forgot password?" feature to be able to save the web credentials in the new environment????

    There is one workaround where at least the export is fast:

    • Export Web Credentials with a third-party tool, e.g. VaultPasswordView from
      www.nirsoft.net
    • Navigate to the sites one by one.
    • Login using the exported credential info.
    • Save password when the browser asks.
    If Windows Credentials can be exported and then imported through the UI then what kind of "security and privacy purpose" is it to forbid the same mechanism for Web Credentials?

    Let's say ok, there are some "security and privacy purposes" against exporting passwords.

    But what about importing or creating new Web Credentials?

    Why is it also impossible?

    How does IE/Edge stores the credentials in the Web Credentials?

    What API do they call to save the credentials?
