Hi Anita Rowe.

Thank you for reaching out here in the Microsoft Community.

In your description, you want to access the Password Manager.

We're a little confused about “password manager” because there is currently no separate password manager for Windows accounts or Windows Hello in Windows, are you referring to a password manager that is part of some application (like Chrome)?

Or is it some third-party password manager you're using?

Please let me know your specific situation and I will provide you further assistance based on your specific situation.

If you want to manage web passwords, you can search for “Control Panel” in the taskbar, then click User Accounts>Credential Manager, and try to manage web passwords or Windows credentials here.

Thank you for your understanding and support. Looking forward to your reply.

Best regards,

Zev - MSFT | Microsoft Community Support Specialist
