I have three windows computers covered and after upgrading to Windows 10 now there is no Password Toolbar. O.K. where is the work around?
My main computer has not been updated until a fix has been issued. Webroot knows of this issue and has my email why haven't we been notified why haven't they created a stand alone cut and paste username and password app? Something - Anything to make Webroot work for their users?
Webroot is not the only competitor in this market and I am not talking Norton or Symantec: I am talking software recommended by computer technicians - software they use themself. I have used webroot for years and have had no problems until now. What's the problem?
where is the password toolbar for Windows 10
Hello ?, welcome to the Community!
The Password Manager is Windows 10 Compatible, with the supported browsers of IE, Chrome and Firefox. It is NOT able to be used in Microsoft Edge because Microsoft blocks ALL add-ons / extensions. Microsoft has delayed any add-on ability for Edge until sometime in 2016 at this point.
I would suggest you complain to Microsoft about the problem with Edge, as MAYBE the more complaints they get the more they MIGHT work to try to get add-on support added in.
I hope this helps,

Hi yourdaytosmile
Welcome to the Community Forums.
If I may add to what David has advised...yes, there is an issue with the Edge browser but that is the only one as all other mainstream browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, etc., work with the Password Manager, and we also have workarounds for those derivate browsers that are not officially supported by Webroot.
Whether Microsoft will ever allow the use of extensions/addons is a moot point and one that cam only be addressed by MS themselves.
My suggestion is that you consider using one of the main stream browsers to be able to use the Password Manager (and some would say a better browsing experience...although I would disagree because I use Edge and am happy with it other than the lack of addons support).

I like Windows 10 other than Edge does not work with add ons hence Webroot Password Manager. Internet explorer has been setting with the sun Microsoft has turned it's back on it and with Firefox the Webroot Password manager comes and goes from the tools bar. I use Firefox in emergency situations: like the world is coming to an end. Chrome was uninstalled the first time I ever tried it and never looked back.
What we see here is the lack of communication in the Standards between developers of application and operating systems of computer software.
The Point: 1. Webroot has worked great for years.
2. Internet Explorer on Windows 7 and 8 has been erratic and Microsoft I believe stopped supporting it.
3. So Microsoft created Windows 10 and thats why Windows 7 and 8 users got a free upgrade.
4. Edge probably works great because of no add ons... Remember all of the alerts about being slowed down.
Thanks for your feedback. I will be testing this all out.....
