SavePasswords Property  
 

Allows the browser to offer to save and auto-fill website passwords.

Syntax

object.SavePasswords [= value ]

Remarks

When the SavePasswords property is set to True, the control prompts to save usernames and passwords entered in forms, making them available for later autofill. While convenient for end users, applications embedding the control may choose to disable this to avoid storing sensitive information on the client system, particularly in enterprise or shared environments. Setting this property to False prevents passwords from being saved.

If the InPrivate property is True or the DataFolder property has not been set to a folder where a user profile will be stored, this property has no persistent effect. Although the browser will prompt to save the password, that information will be automatically deleted when the application closes. Passwords are only saved when a user profile folder has been explicitly specified.
