  2. When, oh when, will Microsoft correct the credentials manager error?

    Hi Russell,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    As a workaround I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it
    helps.


    • Open the Edge browse

    • Click on (…) More actions in the upper right corner of the browse

    • Click on "Settings

    • scroll to the bottom to "Advanced Settings”

    • click on "View advanced settings"

    • scroll down to "Privacy and services"

    • click on "Manage my saved passwords"

    This shows the websites you have saved passwords for. They are listed in random order if you click on an entry it will display:


    • The URL

    • The Username
    Select one of the entries and change one of the passwords, click on Save to Credential Manager and see all of your saved "Web Credentials”.

    Also clear the Edge and Internet Explorer data caches (but not the password cache) and

    Re-boot your PC before performing this fix.

    Hope it helps.

    Credential Manager

    Hi,

    Credential Manager is one of Windows feature that will let you save credentials like usernames and passwords so that you can easily log in to a website or secure computers. We'd like to know the following so we can better assist you.

    • Which build and version of Windows are you using? To check it, click
      Start
      , type winver, then press Enter.
    • Are you making changes to Web Credentials or
      Windows Credentials?
    • Did you make any changes prior to the issue?
    • Is your account being managed by a domain?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In order for us to resolve the issue, we need to make sure that the Credential Manager service and its Dependencies are started and working properly. As an initial troubleshooting to resolve the issue, kindly follow these steps:

    • Press Windows key + R key, type inetcpl.cpl in
      Run dialog box and hit Enter.
    • Under Internet Properties, click Content tab, then under
      AutoComplete select Settings.
    • Under AutoComplete settings, clear all the checked entries, click
      OK and then reselect the entries as selected before and again click
      OK.
    • Once done, restart your computer, then check if the issue persists.

    Please post back with the result for further assistance.

    Why do I see username in credential manager, When microsoft doesn't even give me an option...

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:
