Microsoft is updating the Edge web browser to ensure it no longer loads saved passwords into process memory in clear text at startup after previously stating it was “by design.”

    Backpedals? That is a vibecoding-level mistake that would have sat the Microsoft CEO back in front of the DOJ back in the 1990s.

        i want to be clear whats going on here. every other password manager loads the password you are requesting (they have to)… edge, on startup, loaded every single password in memory to be accessed. every… single… one.

        bitwarden does not do that.
