Greetings,
Nope, they're stored in your Windows Crendentials file. To remove those, click the Start Button, then click the Control Panel. Then, click User Accounts in the Control Panel. Select your account name, and then on the left side of the screen, under Related Tasks, click 'Manage my Network Passwords'. In the window that opens, you can remove an account by clicking the passport you wish to delete [denoted by (Passport)], and then click the 'Remove' button.

Hi,
Let me guess, you're using the Dutch version of Windows XP. Unfortunately the Dutch version has a translation error in it which causes this problem (I've bugged this countless times but it's never been fixed). The easiest solution is just to stop .NET Passports from being saved or used in Windows XP by downloading and running this .reg file: http://messenger.jonathankay.com/dow...lenetcreds.reg You'll need to reboot to see the change. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2006 Jonathan Kay.

Will the password that is stored be deleted, or will only new .net password
no longer be set? "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" wrote: Hi, Let me guess, you're using the Dutch version of Windows XP.

to remove windows messenger and extra
Hi,
The actual store where the .NET Passports are won't be accessed anymore with the reg key established. However, the actual data storing the Passports will still exist. The only real way to remove those in the Dutch version of XP is to make a new Windows user account (well there's other ways but they're not recommended unless you're familiar with binary patching and some other topics). There was a better way pre-SP1 but I'm afraid that was removed too. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2006 Jonathan Kay.

How do I make a new windows user account? Do you mean that I have to delete
this account (there is only 1 user account and it has administrator rights) and replace it by another account?

Hi,
You make another account in the Users settings in Control Panel, then log off and into that account. Once you have all your settings and profile information imported into the new one, then you simply go into the Users in the new one account and delete the old one. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2006 Jonathan Kay.
