| 1481381 | 2021-10-17 17:37:00 | When you create a new item requiring a password, MS wants to save the new password for you. How safe is the MS saved passwords? | Bryan (147) | ||
| 1481382 | 2021-10-17 18:35:00 | Safe as any other method. NOTHING is fool proof. Personally I NEVER allow any browser to save Banking passwords. There's all sorts of other ways as well , password managers etc |

| 1481384 | 2021-10-17 21:38:00 | I used to (with chrome actually....and well back in the day firefox). But don't now unless it's one of my internal sites I want real quick access to (and are not exposed to the internet). I also used to use keepass (a small password database) with a browser extension that woul dsee a password being used and supply it....but after moving to edge, the extension stopped working, and so I looked at and now use keepass stil, but with global auto type. Like for here, I navigated to teh user/password fields and pressed ctrl-shift-a and it found the pcworld entry and typed in the user and password for me. The DB I do have shared, but equally it could just exist on this machine. Quite easy to set up, has apps for phone if you wish, and makes life much easier....and the best thing no cloud |
