<![CDATA[Password Manager not retaining entered data]]>When I enter a UID and PWD, then select "Save" it gets saved only for a short period. Next time I try the same URL, login etc... I have to re-enter the UID and PWD AGAIN. Please advise on how to correct this; I prefer not to go back to Firefox but may have to if Opera's PWD Mgr keeps messing up. Thank you and stay safe...

So I found this https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/outlook-and-other-apps-won-t-remember-password-after-windows-updates-1e5a8a80-7112-440a-a18c-be2e50047a75 after following a post by julianeverst down a rabbit hole and entered the below in Powershell (admin);

Get-ScheduledTask | foreach { If (([xml](Export-ScheduledTask -TaskName $_.TaskName -TaskPath $_.TaskPath)).GetElementsByTagName("LogonType").'#text' -eq "S4U") { $_.TaskName } }

The result was one item: HPCustParticipation HP Officejet Pro 9010 series

So I disabled the task as suggested, restarted Windows and as mentioned in the link there were no saved passwords after the restart. So I am now reentering the ones I usually use as needed and will follow up after a trial period as to the status of the effort. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks leocg,

I can't seem to find a "rule number one" in the forums.
