How can I export / backup the passwords saved in Microsoft Edge? Many people save the passwords for different websites so that they don’t have to enter the passwords again and again, but what if you forgot the password?

Microsoft Edge stores all passwords in Windows Vault (also known as Credential Manger). In Windows 10, you can easily find Windows Vault files by accessing the following locations:

• C:\Users\user_profile_name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Vault
• C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Vault
• C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Vault

All web credentials are stored in an encrypted form and Microsoft Edge doesn’t provide an option to view the saved passwords. In this tutorial we’ll show you a simple way to view & export Microsoft Edge saved passwords using a reliable tool – Password Recovery Bundle.
