Default Clearing login names

XP caches login names that have ever been used to login to network shares or
..NET Passport service. It doesn't seem to store the list of cached logins
in the system registry because I ran a registry search using one of the
logins and couldn't find a match. I need to clear the list of cached logins
on my computer. Any ideas how I can do this?

Thank you...

T.

Greetings Tim,

You can remove Passports in the sign in list by clicking 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 accounts by clicking the passport you
wish to delete [denoted by (Passport)], and then click the 'Remove' button.

For more detailed instructions and screenshots on this procedure, see he

Default Clearing login names

I have the same problem that I would like to clear the
user names used to logon to the messenger before. However
the user name I would like to clear is not in the user
accounts list in the Control Panel. Is there another way
to clear email addresses used to log on to the messenger
before? Thanks in advance. Jeanette

Hi Jeanette,

When you go into the User Accounts click on your Windows XP Account Name, then choose 'Manage
my Network Passwords' (as below), it will be there.
