Instead of leaving a password in your browser, or deleting it, you can encrypt it by moving it to the Vault. When you move one/multiple login credentials to the Vault, Activate Privacy suite will remove the usernames and passwords from your browser’s memory and store them in an encrypted vault. If you choose this option, the web browser will not automatically enter your username and password into the login fields on websites.
- Select one or more credentials and click ‘Move to Vault’.
- You will need to open the Vault to copy your password to the clipboard so you can paste it into a web page’s password field.
- Entering the Vault requires your Windows username and password combination as a safety measure once per session.
Do I have to delete or to move to the Vault?
No. you do not have to take any action. You can leave your credentials in the browser’s memory. While less secured, this provides the convenience of the browser auto-populating your credentials into the web page’s login fields.
