    Import Password to Edge

    As of now, it was possible for the users to import all data including passwords to Edge Chromium from Edge Legacy, Chrome, and Internet Explorer. What that means is that there’s no option just to import passwords to Edge browser, let’s say from the .csv file.

    After getting feedback from lots of users, Edge developers has finally added the option to Import passwords in Password Manager settings page.

    With default settings, Import option is hidden and users have to activate the option using feature flag. Here’s how you can do that:

    In the Edge browser, you need to visit this flag address: edge://flags/#PasswordImport, and using Password import drop-down change the settings from Default to Enabled.

    Click on Restart button to apply the changes.

    As of now, you have successfully activated Import button in password settings. Let’s learn how to import password from .CSV file to Edge

    In the Edge browser, you need to click on the Ellipse (…) icon and select Settings.

    On the left side switch to Profile, and then on the right side, click the Passwords option listed under Your Profile section.

    Next, you need to head over the Saved password section, next to it you will find the ellipse icon, click on it.

    Delete All Saved Passwords at once in Edge

    The functionality to delete all saved passwords at once is available in the latest version of the Edge Canary channel.

    Next, head over to the Saved Password section. Here, you will get the list of all the passwords you have saved in Edge Password Manager.

    Enable or Disable Reveal password button in Edge

    Most online websites like Gmail, Twitter, Facebook, WordPress and other offer its own Reveal Password button, but with Edge Password Reveal button you can enable the functionality in the websites that doesn’t offer this functionality. For example Reddit and others.

    Although, it’s a useful feature for some users on the other hand some users might want to turn off the Password Reveal button due to privacy concerns. Once it’s disabled, either you or no one else will be able to view passwords.

    With default settings, Microsoft Edge Reveal Password button is enabled out of the box. In case, you want to turn off the button, then here’s how you can do that:

    Enable or Disable Reveal password button in Edge

    Head over to Password Setting page. On the right side, under Offer to save passwords, you will find option called “Display the “Reveal password” button when entering passwords“, you need to turn it OFF or ON depending on your requirement.

    With the autofill password feature, any unauthorized person using your computer can access the websites with your credentials. To overcome this thing, the company has added a new option to their Microsoft Edge Canary Build 91.0.849.0, which stops auto-filling of the saved passwords.

    In case, you want to try this feature, then here’s how you can do that:

    On the Profile settings page, under Sign-in (listed under Offer to save password), you will find two options:

    • Sign in automatically – The password manager won’t ask you for permission each time you sign in to a website.
    • Require authentication – Password Manager will ask you for your computer’s password before autofilling password fields
