unable to save password
Hi,
can anyone help? I seem to have difficulty saving my password. The box (where you usually tick for the password to be saved) is greyed, so each time i log onto the computer i have to type my password in again, it does not seem to want to save it. I have windows 98 (old/first edition) and i was told, this was a problem with this edition. However, if anyone knows how this problem can be resolved, i'd be immensely grateful. I did find through microsoft support that if you delete username.pwl this may help - but it hasn't seemed to fix the problem at all.... Looking forward to your suggestions Lisa |

Looking forward to your suggestions Lisa There should be a file in the Windows directory with a PWL extension PassWordList , delete that, reboot and you may have to reenter all your passwords. -- Sincerely, | (©) (©) | ------ooo--(__)--ooo------ Andrew H.
