Each time I access to a network folder, I input Username and password. When I
restart my computer I have to input these infos again.
Under Manage network password, logon credentials are not stored, and if I
try to manaully add a stored credential, Windows access credentials is grayed
out.
I found in a forum:
Registry Settings
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Lsa]
Value Name: DisableDomainCreds
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = enable storage (default), 1 = disable storage)

Checking my registry DisableDomainCreds has value 1.
Can I safely change to 0 in my Windows Vista Home Premium?
This value is present also inside
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet1\Contr ol\Lsa]
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet2\Contr ol\Lsa]
Shall I change also in these keys?
Thank you very much for your help!

Yes, but backup the registry first. Please post back with the result.

Sorry I can't help - I just wanted to say you are not alone. I have exactly
the same problem with my FTP login and password - I have to enter it every
time. Vista Home Premium never saves it, even when 'Save Password' is
ticked. I would also be grateful if any expert could suggest a solution.

Home versions of Vista (as with XP Home) don't save credentials. You're
seeing normal behavior. This is an especially annoying element of version
stratification intended to force people toward higher cost versions. If you
do certain standard mappings, a startup batch file with net use commands is
one option. This worked well in XP Home, but is a bit more difficult in
Vista as UAC prevents it running automatically. A mapping batch file can be
used through task scheduler to run with administrative rights.

But i don't understand. Why would 'remember my credentials' tick box be there
if it does not do anything.
At least in the home edition of XP it was not shown to confuse you.

I have tried to find a resolution to this problem for about a year and a
half now. and i have only found one:
1. Backup documents data onto a server (or external disk)
2. Format disk (Vista wont even allow installation of XP when running)
3. Insert XP Pro disk and install.
4. Rstore data.

I was foolish to purchase vista, and only have myself to blame. Being on the
upper knowledge of computers i am ashamed and embarrased that i purchased a
computer with vista.

But all is now resolved, i have XP Pro on all machines (apart from server:
server 2003 SBS), and must say that all is working seemlessly!

I am having the same issue... seems like it is reported on several
forums but no real solution.

It was working fine for months, and just stopped. I even did a
rollback to see if that would help. No luck.

It still connects to mapped drives on one of my other windows XP boxes,
but not the one I use the most...

Any other ideas?
