password issue on login

[Demi Meridoc]

I have noticed that recently when i go to log in on a third party viewer, that my  password is there there even though i state each time for it to not to remeber me which auto unchecks each of the two boxes .

 can anyone let me know why is this?

thanks in advance

your computer is remembering it, go to your history and clear it, not to forgets ticking passwords and usernames.

Hi Demi,

Try this:

Open your AppData folder > Roaming > Second Life > User Settings and then right click on the settings xml file and select 'open with Notecard'. Scroll down until you locate this section headed  <key>RememberPassword</key>

If the number between the two Booleans is 1, it means your password is remembered.

<key>RememberPassword</key>

- <map>

  <key>Comment</key>

  <string>Keep password (in encrypted form) for next login</string>

  <key>Type</key>

  <string>Boolean</string>

  <key>Value</key>

  <boolean>1</boolean>

  </map>

 

Now if set to 1 between the two booleans avove, change that to 0 then select File > Save. That should fix the problem. If it doesn't, I suggest you reinstall the viewer including manually removing all folders in AppData. 

 

Edit: Just saw you mentioned this was a TPV not Second Life so go to AppData > Roaming > "TPV" > user settings folder instead.
