I am running windows XP with outlook. I am tired of Microsoft Passport
popping up prompting me for my password. When I enter it and mark the
check box to save it, it still pops up every day. I tried the
recommended solutions below and they each didn't work. So I now I want
to remove microsoft passport completely from my machine. Does anyone
know how to do so? thanks


* Start>Run - then type in "control userpasswords2" - without the
quotes -
Advanced tab. Highlight 'Passport.Net\* (Passport)' and then Remove.


* Check your settings here: Start/Run/Regedit

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]
"DisableDomainCreds"=dword:00000000

If the last digit is a 1 (one) either delete the entry or change it to
0.
 
How can I prevent Windows XP from reminding me to enter Microsoft .NET
Passport details?
