Windows 10: Windows 10 Credential Manager Recovery from Failed Drive

Hello,Is there any way to restore the saved web passwords and others from a failed Windows 10 driver? I have all the files on a backup drive and have reloaded windows to a new drive. The old OS is not bootable so cant export. There must be a way or a tool, just cant find anything online. Anyone know any working methods to recover WCM?

Windows Network Credentials

Hi Keith,

We suggest that you disable Credential Manager before mapping your Drives. Please follow these steps to disable Credential Manager:

• In the search box type “Services”
• Right click on “Services” and select “Run as Administrator”
• In the Services Window, look for Credential Manager Service and click “Stop”.
• Restart the computer and go back the Credential Manager Service and set it to “Automatic”.
• Restart the computer again.

Please keep us updated if you were able to map your drives.
