Thinkvantage Password Manager doesn't work on Windows 10

After installing the latest (4.70 Build 2) Password Manager to Windows 10 (Build 9926) on my Thinkpad T520, it does not work well (I try to use it with Chrome 40.0.2214.111 m, plugin version is 4.60.3).
Specifically:
The app starts at system startup and shows tray icon
I can't open the app by double clicking on it: the splash screen appears but then disappears
I can't open the settings from the right click menu of the tray icon
The chrome plugin doesn't do anything (it is installed, but doesn't pop up when I type a password)
Sometimes when typing a password to a Windows password box, the Password Manager "save password" window pops in after freezing the window for 2-3 seconds.
Notes:
I have used Password Manager with Chrome on Windows 8.1, where it worked
Fingerprint login works well with the Fingerprint Software 6.0.0 Build 8102

Hi, I have an X220 and upgraded to W10.  PWM does not work in Edge . . . but I just found under All Apps - Windows Accessories - IE11.  PWM continues to work on W10 IE11 which at this point I prefer to Edge for several reasons. I looked up a number or tweaks and tips articles about W10 but did not see any of them mention that IE11 was still available under W10.   Regards - K

  • LastPass password manager doesn't work with latest Firefox after downloading add-in, installing it and re-starting Firefox.

    I'm using FireFox 20.0. I downloaded the add-in, installed it and re-started FireFox but LastPass doesn't show up in the add-ins nor does it fill in the login info on sites that I have in my LastPass vault.

    What I've done is make LastPass my home site so when I launch FireFox, I log into LastPass and leave the LastPass vault page in an open tab. Then when I log into another site which requires a login and password which I've previously set up in LastPass, LastPass logs me into that site automatically. LastPass is a free password manager that works well in IE. Any time LastPass detects a login page, it enables you to set up the password and ID in its database and fills in the login info at future login prompts. My solution for FireFox is a bit clunky but when I need to use a second browser, it works.

  • Password Manager Doesn't Work With Following Sites:

    Hello,
    I'm having much trouble with the following sites in terms of getting password manager to rememeber the passwords. When I log in, pass Manager doesn't prompt me to remember information.
    Hotmail
    Hushmail
    Facebook
    Other Financial Sites
    Is there a way I can manual add info? Other solutions? Thanks! 

    Hello, I'm sitll having the same issue. i have noticed that this is only an issue with Firefox. IE7 works fine with manager on all websites.
    Please, if developers are reading this, fix the bugs in Password manager and allow it to intgrate with Firefox better! thanks! 

  • Password Manager doesn't work for me now!!!

    I had start up problems with my laptop so I had to get all my files retrieved from the HD and reload them.
    When I did a cut and paste after reinstalling TB all my data come back which was excellent.
    Unfortunately, when I selected "Get Messages" nothing happens. I had to right click on the email address and the select "Get Messages" for each individual email address that I have loading (6). This brings up the ISP password login...when I enter the required password and check the "use Password Manager.... etc." it doesn't save the password or retrieve the mail.
    The email loads if there is any to retreive as long as I don't check the"password Manager"...but I have to go through the process explained above again and again at it has become tiresome and well, quite frustrating.
    Any suggestions???

    Sadly, downloading and installing the latest version of Applicarion Manager did not resolve this problem.  Thanks, though!

  • Zen Sync Manager doesn't work with Windows 7

    I have a Zen 6GB MP3 player, firmware version .2.03_0.03.0.
    I recently upgraded my computer from Windows Vista to Windows 7. Sync Manager (looks like version 6.4.8.0, dated 7/7/2007) worked fine with Vista, and it even worked for a few days after I upgraded, but now it does not recognize that there is a player connected.
    Zen Media Explorer still works, so I can drag and drop audio files to the Zen, but this is a bit of a pain. More importantly, I need to find a way to sync organizer (Outlook) data.
    I have tried running Sync Manager in various compatibility modes (Vista, XP SP3, XP SP2), but it still will not recognize the player. From something I read in another post in this forum, I'm wondering if I need to uninstall Sync Manager and reinstall it in a compatibility mode? All my other applications work fine with Win 7, so I'm not that familiar with how to use compatibility mode properly.
    Thanks!

    I tried every which way to solve this problem, and in the end contacted Ctreati've tech support. They advised the following:
    "Please be advised that, currently, we do not have Creative Media Explorer (Sync Manager) and firmware updates available for ZEN on Windows 7 OS.
    Creative is working constantly on updates for Windows 7 users who are using Creative products. These updates will be deli'vered from time to time on our website. We encourage you to often visit our support site, http://support.creative.com/ and forum page, http://forums.creative.com/ for product updates and announcements."
    Frustrating; it looks like a matter of waiting ...

  • T510 Thinkvantage password manager and hotmail

    The thinkvantage password manager seems to recognize passwords in some sites but not others.  Most notably, no matter what I do, it does not seem to recognize hotmail, so no option ever comes up to add the hotmail password to the password manager when I log in to hotmail.
    Does anyone know how to make password manager recognize the password field in hotmail?  Is there any way to manually add a website to password manager?  I can seem to find one.

    Hello mate,
    Password manager doesn't work with Hotmail. Probably a compatibility problem. You can't do much about that, you can create a scratch pad if your are afraid to forgot your password but that's almost it.

  • X200 ThinkVantage Password Manager

    Hi. We are in the process of removing Local Administrator priveledges for most of our users. One of our users uses the fingerprint reader and ThinkVantage Password Manager software to control his Windows login and his Lotus Notes login on his X200 tablet.
    Since removing his local admin priveledges, the user reports that he can no longer login to Lotus Notes using his fingerprint. He is only presented with the normal Lotus Notes login screen. When attempting to launch the Password Manager by pressing the blue ThinkVantage button above the KB and then selecting Manage, nothing happens. If his local admin rights are restored, he can login to Lotus Notes with his fingerprint, and the Password Manager launches properly.
    Does anybody have any tips to get this working without local admin rights? Thanks!

    Hi,
    first I would like to make a short explanation on how Fingerprint and CSS (Client security Solution aka Password Manager) are working in this situation:
    After you confugred the system and the user swiped his fingers into the FPR applications and sensor, it hase captured also all other metadata, like the user role, name, domain, etc.
    In case anything changes, then the application will react accordingly and in your case it will just kind of react, like if it would not recognize the login for Lotus notes.
    So here is what I would advice to do:
    - remove all the swiped fingers from the FPR for the user, that you want to change (remove the Admin account) and make the appropriate changes to the system and the account
    - first of all as an Admin enter Fingerprint console and configure it , so that also a non-Admin user can log on and use the Fingerprint:
    Settings->User Privileges-> check all the boxes, that are in this tab
    - log on as the affected user
    - swipe the fingers and make sure, that also CSS is configured, as it was previously
    - reboot the machine
    This should be enough, to get the metadata corrected and the new, or better say the old user will be able to use the ususal Fingerprint loging without any problem.
    Please let me knwo, if you will have any add questions, or will have this situation tested.
    Cheers

  • Does ThinkVantage Password Manager work with Firefox 3.6. Earlier versions it would not work.

    Last time I installed Firefox it would not load Lenovo ThinkVantage Password Manager as a plug in. Since then I have not used Firefox. I would like to again try Firefox but thought I would ask the question first. Can I use ThinkVantage Password Manager with Firefox 3.6?

    Lenovo have released a patch that will make the ThinkVantage Password Manager work with Firefox 3.6 and higher. You can download it from:

    I've just installed it and it works perfectly now.

  • ThinkVantage Password Manager unable to recognize fingerprint reader

    Hi, I have a X220 running on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. My ThinkVantage Password Manager version is 3.20.0333.00, and my fingerprint reader driver version is 1.5.0.289 from AuthenTec. My ThinkVantage Fingerprint Software version is 5.9.5 build 7038.
    However, when authentication is required for the Password Manager, a Client Security Solution pops up showing "The requested operation requires fingerprint authentication, but the device is not installed. Please make sure the device is connected and retry the operation."
    I am also unable to find the "enroll fingerprint" option in my Password Manager.
    Anyone have similar problems? Thanks.

    Did this work previously, and it just stopped working?
    What version of Client Security Solution is installed?  To use that version of Fingerprint software, it needs to 8.30.0049 (or later)

  • Thinkvantage Password Manager - Which Browsers supported?

    I am currently using an Edge 15" running Windows 7 (64 bit) and Firefox 3.6.12. I have Thinkvantage Password Manager (3.20.0330.00) installed together with a fingerprint reader.
    The password Manager is not opening when I log into web sites to capture the login info because Firefox has disabled the add in associated with it due to compatibility problems.
    Can anyone suggest a browser that does work properly with the password manager?. If possible I would like to avoid IE and stick with an earlier version of FF - do any of the earlier versions work?
    What's been your experience?
    Regards

  • Since updating my iPad 2 to ios8, it safari has been slow and crashing and some of the apps acting wierd. The password app doesn't work at all so had to find another way of retrieving all my passwords. Very very dissapointing

    Since updating my iPad 2 to ios8, it safari has been slow and crashing and some of the apps acting wierd. The password app doesn't work at all so had to find another way of retrieving all my passwords. Very very dissapointing. It appears from these forums that a lot of people are having the same problems wit this latest update.

    Hi erastyle,
    Actually the Licensing information for the package is missing hence it is not launching any applications. You need to Reserialize the products using APTEE which you can find it on the Machine where you have created the package. If you dont have the access to that Machine then please download and install Creative Cloud Packager and it will download APTEE in the below mentioned location.
    Windows:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\CCP\utilities
    Once downloaded please follow this KB article to use the Tool.

    Please let us know if it helps.

  • What just happened? HD password suddenly doesn't work...

    Alright this is a tricky one.  W520 w/ Intel SSD.
    I've got a Supervisor (SPV) password set for my BIOS as well as a HD password set. 
    I don't think I had a Power-on password set but I'm not sure.
    No problems, my password has always worked. 
    I'm working and I have my laptop plugged into my LAN via Ethernet and I shut down.  I always use wireless but was working with my router settings so had it plugged in via Ethernet this time.
    When I start up, it started trying to boot from LAN, I see the Intel Boot manager start up (screen saying Press Ctrl + S to change options), and of course there is nothing on my LAN to PXE boot from so it proceeds after failing.
    Then it asks for my Supervisor password, I enter it, works, asks for my HD password, I enter it, doesn't work.  I try again, doesn't work.  Try a third time, locks me out.  I restart the machine. 
    The next time it asks for my HD password first rather than my Supervisor password, which doesn't work again.  I reboot again. 
    Third time through this charade and for some reason the HD password works now but only to get me into the BIOS -- meaning I've pressed F1 and it asks for my password and lets me into the BIOS settings.
    From here I try to remove the User password on the hard drive but it does not accept the password -- the same password I just entered and it accepted. 
    Now I'm not fat fingering or anything, the password is simple and I'm making sure I'm typing it in exactly correct.
    So somehow powering off and powering on with my Ethernet cable connected has majorly screwed up my passwords in the BIOS.  I think it was set to re-order boot devices if Wake-on-LAN was enabled or something, but something in that process must have screwed up my BIOS config.   I don't know what to do.  I don't understand what the heck is happening here. Password works then all of a sudden doesn't?

    But the real question is why for the past year did the passwords work and then all of the sudden after this anomaly the disk password doesn't work?  I'm not 100% sure of what my configuration was, but I know that most of the time it required one password -- supervisor, and occasionally it asked for 2 -- disk password as well I believe.  This may have been related to the Password on Restart setting I think -- asking for the disk password on cold vs. warm boot.  But I know both were exactly the same.  But after this incident only the Supervisor password worked.

  • Do any versions of FF support the use of Lenovo's ThinkVantage Password Manager s/w and fingerprint scanner?

    Lenovo Edge 15" laptop running Windows 7 (64 bit) and using Thinkvantage Password Manager Ver 3.20.0330 and TouchStrip Fingerprint Sensor (UPEK).
    The password manager is to set to restrict logins to websites to fingerprint but when logging into websites I am not given the option to use the fingerprint reader -(the login info stored in the P/W manager is entered and login takes place). I have seen elsewhere that FF 3.6 has problems supporting this combination and wonder if any earlier versions of FF would be suitable or if FF 4 is likely to support it.
    Any help would be appreciated

    I would recommend, if you have it set, to go to a restore point before you uninstalled the password manager version that did not give you a problem and not use the new version until this bug is resolved.
    If the fingerprint light is not showing up, then it is probably not limited to you and I hope Lenovo checks it out.
    Too bad the newer version seems to load slowly - I will check it out as well.

  • Password manager is not working. How can I save my passwords?

    I can't save my passwords. Password manager doesn't seem to work properly. I deleted Firefox and installed it again but the problem insists. I checked the settings and everythink is OK. Tools - Settings - Security - Remember passwords is checked. But the password manager doesn't appear. What can I do?

  • How Can I Uninstall Thinkvantage Password Manager?

    How can I uninstall or disable this without compromising my fingerprint reader?
    Failing that, how can I remove an application so Password Manager no longer tries to "help" me with its password?

    I've just upgraded to Windows 7, and I've yet to activate the Client Security software, so I can't be specific on what may have changed from Vista.
    In the Vista version of Password Manager, I recall there was an "Options" or "preferences" item in the menu bar of the program. Within the options then displayed, it was possible to switch off the manager's recognition of Windows programs' password entry, or for internet browsers' password entry, and maybe one or two other classes of programs. So in your case, switching off recognition of all Windows programs might do it.
    Oh, one more thing: I'm pretty sure both Password Manager and the Fingerprint Manager are dependant on the Client Security Solution (CSS) software package installation, since the latter contains the bits and pieces of the framework that connects them all together with the "Trusted Platform Module"  (TPM), the hardware encryption device that's soldered onto the main board of the notebook, as well as the biometric hardware.
    Since the CSS has these dependencies (while using the TPM drivers provided in Windows), it's really an all-or-nothing proposition: either you use it, or you switch entirely to another security suite solution vendor such as UPEK, who will use their own security framework, password manager, and fingerprint software.
    Windows 7 is significantly more flexible than Vista here: for instance the UPEK security suite uses the "Windows 7 Biometric Device Framework", meaning that any hardware device with drivers for that framework will work "out of the box" with the UPEK security suite, while Vista still depends on manufacturer's device driver kits--e.g. with Vista, the UPEK suite will only support UPEK fingerprint hardware, not the Authentec devices installed on some Thinkpads.
