Remember My Password!

[Lynn Terry]

I just got my new computer set up this past week, and we are still getting to know each other. Creating history and making cookies and spending cache and all.

My daughter got on my computer and I believe she must have clicked "do not show this box again" during her surfing... and so now my computer no longer asks me "Do you want me to remember that for you?"

How do I get that back? I want it to remember my login names and passwords for various sites I log in to every day. Is there a way to turn that option back on??

What browser are you using?

[Lynn Terry]

Internet Explorer. I use FireFox too, but dont have it installed yet.

I believe that's in Tools->Internet_Options in the content box under settings you can manage the auto complete so it prompts you again.

I don't have IE installed on my laptop so that's why I said"I believe" since I can't look there myself right now but check in there.

Sweet! Here's hoping that works

Thanks!

Lynn,

Use System Restore and go back two or three days. It will set
your computer back to where it was.

True that - it worked like a charm

Thanks again, Alan!

You might also want to consider using Roboform - http://www.roboform.com/ so that it doesn't matter what browser you are using.

Just seconding the post about Roboform. I found it about 3 months ago. It remembers all of your passwords, will even generate them for you. You only have to remember 1 password now.

I have nearly 100 passwords in Roboform and I estimate it saves me about 1/2 hour per day in time lost looking for or guessing and requesting forgotten passwords!

Recommend it highly.
