How To: Remove the .NET Credentials (Stored User names and Passwords in VISTA)

If you are receiving prompt for username and password when launching application or IE. This will be the 1st thing you need to check and do.

Click Start, Run and type Control keymgr.dll at Start Search and press enter.



Remove the entries from the list.



I have created the "test" entry as a sample, this entry will be different related to the problem. Example if the system prompt password when you are launching http://www.yahoo.com/, the entry will goes like "www.yahoo.com....."

The other ways to access this dialog are:

Type Control Userpasswords2 in RUN box, click Advanced, Manage Passwords

-or-

From Control Panel, select your User Account, click Manage your network passwords
