Setting up the Password Vault
Before you start using the Password Vault, you must set up a
Password Vault password. Only users who know this password
can access your Password Vault. If you forget your Password
Vault password, you can reset it; however, all of the passwords
that were previously stored in your Password Vault are then
deleted.
After you set up a Password Vault password, you can add, edit, or
remove passwords from your vault. You can also change your
Password Vault password at any time.
