Lumia 920 IE 10 username/password autocomplete

Internet Explorer 10 on my Lumia 920 does not appear to offer to save any username/password combinations in the way that IE10 in Windows 8 (on my laptop) does.  Am I missing something?  I access the same wi-fi hotspot many times each day and am getting very fed up entering my credentials every time I log in...

Please use plain text.

No, as far as I'm aware IE10 on WP8 doesn't have a password manager.

Re: Lumia 920 IE 10 username/password autocomplete

The remember password functionality depends on a cookie being stored on your device.  If you're set to block all cookies, you'll have to re-enter your user/pass on website as well as resetting any website preferences.

 

To change this setting, press the '...' at the bottom of the IE page, then "settings", then "advanced".

 

Mine is set to "block some" .

 

If the settings is appropriate for you, try deleting your history and see if that resets the cookie for you.

I've tried it set to "allow some" and "allow all" and neither seems to allow the browser to remember the password (or the username).  Very frustrating.
