    To remove the Windows security request that appears every time you try to edit your saved passwords, you can follow these steps:

    1. Clear Cached Credentials:
      • Open Control Panel.
      • Go to Credential Manager > Windows Credentials.
      • Look for any entries related to the account in question and remove them.
      • Restart your computer and check if the prompt still appears.
    2. Disable Automatic Sign-in:
      • Press Windows + R, type netplwiz, and press Enter.
      • In the User Accounts window, select your account and uncheck the box labeled "Users must enter a username and password to use this computer."
      • Click Apply, then enter your current password when prompted, and click OK.
      • Restart your device to see if the issue is resolved.

    If the problem persists, you may want to check with your IT department or look into any domain or policy-related restrictions that might be causing the issue.
