Password store

Post by pjpw2320 »

Where does Slimjet store passwords entered for websites which require a login?

Thank you. If I untick the option "offer to save your web passwords" am I correct in assuming that passwords will not be saved at all? In other words, to have Slimjet save passwords there is no option to enable it do so automatically and I have to check this option and then accept the popup offer to save?

Neither the Quickfill or the default password manager (comes with the underlying browser engine used by Slimjet) will save passwords without your direct action. For me the Quickfill Icon seems easier to use than the popup for the default password manager.

I´ve not tried to untick the option "offer to save your web passwords" but I think that if you do untick it slimjet wil not offer to save passwords and so these will not be saved.
Also, there is a topic called How to save pw when I have >1 account number/username? that will serve for further reading.
