One of the most annoying limitations of both Windows XP Home and Vista Home Premium was they did not remember network passwords after reboot. Vista even had a 'remember password' check box which did nothing.
Does Windows 7 Home Premium remember network passwords?
Edited to add: I am talking here about network shared resources, like \\server\music or something, not wireless access passwords.
Also Edited to add: I have now tried this on the final release, and passwords can be remembered, although sometimes this requires manually setting of username/password in the 'Credential Manager' in User Settings in Control Panel.
AFAICT, this is not the expected behaviour of any of the above OSes. They all should remember passwords and do for some people, but not for everyone (Windows 7 is broken for me as I type this). You mention that "google suggests it is ... the expected behaviour" in a comment below. Can you post a link which says that, because I can't find any. – rjmunro – 2011-04-20T10:44:14.710
@rjmunro I don't think you are right - Chris's info re Vista Home is correct in my experience. – None – 2012-09-03T11:03:27.477
You can check it with an old good Network Password Recovery utility. So I've checked my RDS passwords ;)
