Password Check
Although the Password function in Microsoft Authenticator is amazing, I believe that Microsoft Edge may have a function to perform the user login check - as is done in https://www.zdnet.com/article/c...
- Hi,
yes, that's right, Edge has had this feature for 6 months

bsabrunosouzaYou mean email check? Ok, well, send feedback: Go to the ... -> Help and Feedback -> Send feedback. I will do the same.
it's already there. if you read OP's post and the article I linked.
HotCakeX, It's not there. I meant checking the internet for emails and if it matches my email, then alert me.
- And checking for Email to see it matches any hacked database is useless.
Emails aren't as important and private as passwords. people give their emails to each other for communication, post their emails in websites for others to contact them etc.
so, it won't be a surprise if a database on the Internet contains someone's Email address. there are lots of databases on the Internet that collection Email addresses. but that does Not mean that you are compromised.
this feature in Edge checks for leaked/hacked Passwords, it's far more important than Emails.
Passwords are the ones that matter.
