How do I find my saved passwords on my computer? I am trying to access my email and the password is not the same as my Microsoft password.

Microsoft Edge | Profile, sync, and sign in | Windows 11

    Hi , try opening Edge , ⋯ ,Settings , Passwords and autofill , Microsoft Password Manager.

    Find your email website, open its entry, and click the eye icon. If asked, use your computer’s sign-in PIN or password to reveal the saved password.

    If the password was saved in Microsoft Edge, it can be viewed there:

    1. Open Microsoft Edge.
    2. Select the three dots in the top-right corner.
    3. Select Settings.
    4. Select Passwords and autofill > Microsoft Password Manager.
    5. Select the saved password entry.
    6. Select the eye icon to view it.

    A device PIN or password may be required before the password is shown.

    If using Windows Settings for passkeys, sign in to Microsoft Edge with a personal account profile first, then open: Settings > Accounts > Passkeys > Advanced options.

    If the password being requested is for an Outlook Data File (.pst), that password is separate from the Microsoft account password, and Microsoft can’t recover it.
