 it's controlled feature rollout

available in Edge canary, was added few versions ago.

 

this helps your passwords stay safe, by requiring you to enter your Windows Pin/Password when you want to autofill your credentials on a web page. using the same strong authentication method Windows uses to secure your login screen, secure your disks pre-logon etc.

 

 

next in line is this

 

 

I'm already seeing some bits of it in Edge canary, but not fully implemented just yet.

    That's no way to be the feature that everyone was waiting for. I am still able to export the passwords and use them on another browser. Edge as Chrome is still not able to encrypt the password correctly.

    I never added a master password and forsome stinking reason it thinks I did. Now I can't use EDGE at all. I've tried uninstalling EDGE but that doesn't work.
