SYMPTOMS
After you change a password on one computer and then log on to another computer, the matching credentials in Stored User Names and Passwords are not updated.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because Stored User Names and Passwords is not able to update the stored passwords in the situation that is described in the &quot;Symptoms&quot; section of this article. These credentials cannot be updated during authentication because the credentials are stored in the profile which is not yet loaded. Because the profile is not available, there is no way to update it.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
