Turn on Password Monitor
To turn on Password Monitor:
- Make sure you’re signed in to Microsoft Edge using your Microsoft account or your work or school account.
- In your browser settings, go to Profiles > Passwords.
- Turn on the toggle next to “Show alerts when passwords are found in an online leak”. After the toggle is turned on, any unsafe passwords will be displayed on the Password Monitor page in your browser settings > Passwords.
.I'm not seeing that switch at all. This is all I have in Password;
Version 85.0.556.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)

hhmmm,
Ok so this morning as I normally do when I open/start edge Can for the day, I check all my settings to see if anything has changed. I find that now I have this feature, however the "Suggest strong passwords" feature that I had and had it switched on, is there but it is now greyed out....What happened?

Ok, hhhmm scratch everything above... As I was typing the reply above Can stopped responding and when it started responding again, this post got posted. I rechecked my settings and to my surprise, that setting that was greyed out, is now available and switched on....
Go figure... lol

Dennis5mile It's possible that you may encounter temporary issues like this in the early preview of a feature. If you see the control toggle and text greyed out for a sustained period of time, check to confirm if you're signed-in. Password Monitor requires users to be signed-in to the browser.
