How to clear cached credentials Windows 10?
Windows seems to be saving my credentials for a variety of applications (terminal servers, etc) and I'd like to purge this data.
How can I backup and purge this data?
Regarding the clear cached credentials windows 10 - There is also a command-line utility:
C:> /?
Creates, displays, and deletes stored user names and passwords.
The syntax of this command is:
CMDKEY [{/add | /generic}:targetname {/smartcard | /user:username {/pass{:password}}} | /delete{:targetname | /ras} | /list{:targetname}]
Examples:
To list available credentials:
/list
/list:targetname
To create domain credentials:
/add:targetname /user:username /pass:password
/add:targetname /user:username /pass
/add:targetname /user:username
/add:targetname /smartcard
To create generic credentials:
The /add switch may be replaced by /generic to create generic credentials
To delete existing credentials:
/delete:targetname
To delete RAS credentials:
/delete /ras
