Lync 2010 - Disable "Save My Password" Checkbox on Lync Client

Hello,
I am deploying Lync 2010 to workgroup computers and would like to disable the "Save My Password" checkbox on the Lync login screen.  Does anyone know how this can be configured in the registry?
Thanks

Hi Tom,
I don't understand how it work because I have users that, even without save the password, clients will not "auto-login", but there are others users who
behave the
way you say. For example, when i try to login with the user "lynctest" in my computer (pc1, it's not a member of domain), always ask me for credentials. However, in other computer that also is
not a domain member (pc2), when i try to login with the same user, no ask me for credentials. If I revoke the cert auth for lynctest, the first time that log on in pc2 ask me for credencials. Then, never again. In pc1,
still works the
same way.
I
hope your help!
Fernando

  • Lync 2013 + clear "Sign-In Address" and disable "Save Password" on shared account

    Hello,
    We are trying to setup Lync on a few kiosk machines that will have a shared non-admin account.  We'd like to modify Lync to not save the "Sign-In Address" and instead of showing the last persons login credentials, show "[email protected]".
    I'd also like to disable the "Save Password" check box.
    The kiosks are not on the domain, although the vast majority of our machines are on the domain and we have SSO setup and don't want to mess with how that part of the signin process is working.
    Is there a way to modify the login behavior of Lync via GPO or Task Scheduler/Scripts?
    Phillip Toynton

    Open Control Panel, click Credential Manager.
    Remove the credential for Lync account. Then you can enter the password again.
    You can uncheck save my password, the related registry key is HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\SavePassword.
    But this registry can be modified by Lync users, you can’t disable it.

  • How come I have to put in a keychain password every time safari or mail is opened? Is there a way I can disable it or save the password so it doesn't pop up every time?

    How come I have to put in a keychain password every time safari or mail is opened? Is there a way I can disable it or save the password so it doesn't pop up every time? Also, I have my mail account set up from my Yahoo! account and every time I open mail, it asks for the password for my Yahoo! account. I have checked save this password to keychain and it persists on popping up repeatedly.

    You don't want to disable keychain (if there's even a good way to do so), since it stores stuff like certificates and the such.  It's quite useful.
    Anyways, Keychains>Preferences>First Aid.  Check Set Login Keychain as default.  When you login, it unlocks the keychain.
    That should help you.

  • Lync 2010 and Outlook 2010 cannot save conversation history

    I have a user that is having issues saving their conversations to Outlook 2010. It is isolated to 1 user and follows that user no matter what machine they log into. They have the feature turned on to save their conversations to outlook and i even see the
    conversation history start to queue up, but it will not get sent to outlook. The issue 2 weeks ago for them and as far as i can tell nothing was done to their account.

    Hi,
    Lync client save the conversation history to outlook through EWS, If the EWS is not possible it will go through MAPI. So please check the user's lync client Configuration Information, make sure the EWS deploy is OK and you can find the EWS URI.
    You also can try to change the EWSFindCountLimit for this user.
    New-ThrottlingPolicy –Name LyncClientPolicy –EWSFindCountLimit $null
    Set-Mailbox -Identity usermailAddress –ThrottlingPolicy LyncClientPolicy

  • Save the password but disable the auto fill

    Hi All,
    I have a typical requirement in ff 3.5.15, where i want to save the password for any login. but i do not want to use the auto fill for filling the password automatically.
    In short , i want to use the password save option but disable autofill . Is it posible.
    Thanks in advance

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Password_only_filled_after_entering_user_name
    Set the pref signon.autofillForms to false on the about:config page.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/signon.autofillForms
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • Powerpivot data connection will not save the password

    I'm trying to create a Powerpivot workbook with data that users can refresh themselves before analysis.  We don't have Powerpivot data refresh in Sharepoint active, so I can't make use of that service.
    When I create a Powerpivot data connection to SQL server using SQL Server Authentication (unchanging read-only username and password), and checking the box to save the password, the connection works fine for refreshing the data as long as I leave the workbook
    open.
    If I close the file and re-open it, the password is gone from the data connection and the user cannot refresh the data.
    I've tried configuring the data connection with the SQL native client provider and the SQL OLEDB provider and I see exactly the same results.
    The connection string gets built with Persist Security Info=True and the Password shows up as hidden text (dots).  It stays this way through refreshes as long as the workbook is open.  However, once I close the file and re-open it, the
    connection string no longer has the Password parameter listed at all, not even as hidden text.  Persist Security Info is still there and set to True.  As might be expected, the connection string does not have the information needed to access the
    SQL Server instance.
    This type of connection string using SQL Server Authentication still works fine with the password saved when used directly as an Excel data connection, or when used as a data source in Reporting Services.  It's only Powerpivot where the password gets
    blown away.
    Is there a workaround for this issue?

    Thanks Jaynet.
    Unfortunately, the procedure described in the link you provided does not work for PowerPivot, at least in Excel 2010.
    If I create the PowerPivot data connection using "From Database/From SQL Server" there is no option to "Allow saving password".  There is only the checkbox to "Save my password".  There is an "Advanced" button that allows you to set many additional
    properties of the data connection, but there is nothing like allow saving password.
    If I create the PowerPivot data connection using "From Other Sources/Others (OLEDB/ODBC)" and then click the "Build" button, I get a dialog that is pretty close to the one in your link.  For the Provider tab, I can choose either the Microsoft OLE DB
    Provider for SQL Server or the SQL Server Native Client 10.0.  In the connection tab I do have the "Allow saving password" checkbox.  I check this and complete the rest of the data connection configuration.  After I save the file with this data
    connection and then re-open it, the data will not refresh.  If I edit the existing connection from the PowerPivot design tab, the Password parameter is completely missing from the connection string.  If I go back into the connection string builder,
    there is nothing in the password field (not even dots) and allow saving password is no longer checked.
    I've even tried creating my own connection string in Notepad and pasting it into the connection string box (definitely including Persist Security Info=True).  This does not work either and PowerPivot erases the entire Password parameter just the same
    as if I had used the builder and checked Allow saving password.
    I'm beginning to think that the previous poster, David Hager, has it right.  This may be a bug introduced with the latest version of PowerPivot.  If there is no workaround, it is a total pain for me.

  • Save the password for Mobile Documents Desktop

    Hi,
    since Upgrade to Mobile Documents Windows 1.24 I have to enter the Password at every Boot. Is it possible to save the Password?
    Regards
    Andreas Czech

    Hi,
    The admin can specify whether to allow Desktop Client to "save passwords locally". You should contact your admin, to check if they have not disabled the setting.
    If they have allowed you to save the password locally, on start in the login screen, you should see a checkbox "Remember my password" option. This will help you to save the password and you will not be asked to enter a password on each boot.

  • [Solved] Nm-applet in Openbox doesn't save WiFi password

    Hi guys!
    In this days I'm working on a Openbox desktop on my eeepc 1005HA...
    For the wifi connection I have to use network-manager because wicd doesn't work well with the encription of my university (WPA2 Enterprise Tkip + cert)...
    But nm-applet every boot asks me the wifi pass! There are 3 days that I scan google and forums for a solution but I haven't found it yet....
    I've already tried:
    1) unlock keyring modifying as is written in the wiki (doens't work)
    2) add gnome-keyring-daemon --start -c pkcs11 & in autostart.sh and then in rc.local (because so it starts before nm-applet)
    3) adding source /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/30-dbus or export GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID="openbox" in autostart.sh as i've read somewhere in the web, but nothing! Nm-applet don't save the password...
    I don't know what try now....Someone has been able to get it work?

  • Won't save websites password

    I have tried two advice one is click on Remember password in option and that did not save the website password. I have tried disable Remember password as I can't find anywhere in option that clear history when closing the application. Even on website, I click on "Remember me" or "Remember password", either Firefox or the website won't save the password for next time in Firefox. I have version 29.0.1. I even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox with no success. Example of two websites I am having problem saving password for are Myspace and AOL. Can is there something I am missing to make this work? Thank you.

    One last thing. In the event that the passwords information is lost, you
    should record all information in a separate text file somewhere else

    If you are concerned about someone else looking at that file, you can
    compress it using a password.

  • How do you disable "Save As Copy..."? (CS5)

    When I'm splicing a Photoshop file, since there doesn't appear to be a "Export Selection" option that actually works, I have to "Convert to Smart Object" -> "Convert to Layer" -> "Save As..." but it automatically selects the "Save As Copy" checkbox. This is irritating and I can't find a solution to disable this. Can anyone explain to me how I can accomplish this? (Even if it means modifying the code for the application.)
    Thank you.

    The the document you are trying to save does not have a background layer or has more than one layer and you are trying to save to a format like jpeg you need to flatten the image before saving. Or use SFW( which saves a copy ).
    Not all formats handle all of Photoshop features and forcing Save As Copy is Photoshop way of trying to do what you asked while still keeping the non-supported features for that format like extra layers, alpha channels, paths, etc.

  • Fire fox will not save any passwords even after checking the save passwords box

    I don't know how else to say it, the save password does not work even after checking the save password box if I can't get it fixed I'll use some one else

    Go to Tools | Options and choose the Security tab from the Options dialog. Check the "Remember passwords for sites" checkbox. Click the Exceptions button to make sure the site you want to remember is not listed.
    From that point on, Firefox will record the username and password combination you enter for a site provided it can recognized those fields in the website form. If the username and password are not already recorded for that site, a bar will expand down at the top of the webpage below the page tabs asking you if you want to remember or ignore that new information. Clicking the Remember button will record that information for that site. When you visit that same form again, either the single recorded username and password should automatically appear in the form fields, or a drop-down list of choices will appear when you set the focus to that field. The choices can be filtered by typing the first letters.
    If the "Save password" checkbox you mentioned is displayed on the webpage, it is not a part of Firefox and is a function of the webpage of that site, so it does not affect the ability of Firefox to remember usernames and passwords for a particular site.
