This is why, most browsers these days offer a built-in password manager, which is a great way to keep track of all your different passwords for different sites. Edge is no different, and in fact, has one of the more robust password managers out there.
Whether you’ve forgotten a password or just want to see what’s been saved, it’s easy to do.
This blog post will show you how to view saved passwords in Microsoft Edge on your PCs or mobile devices.
