Using Password Manager on both Chrome and Edge at the same time

Can I use Password Manager on both Chrome and Edge at the same time? To date I have been using Chrome where it works great. I have a new laptop and am checking out the use of Password Manager in Edge - hence the overlap between the browsers. It seemd to work OK but when I switch browsers I have to log in using the master password. Is this right? Thanks

    Hello @aif55

    Personally, I use both the Bitdefender password manager and the Microsoft Edge wallet without difficulty.
    In my experience, if you use multiple browsers with the Bitdefender password manager you are required to log into the Bitdefender password manager every time you switch from one browser to another.

    This is only my personal experience.

  • Hi,

    To add here, if you lock your device without closing your browser, Password Manager doesn’t lock and you can access your data when you return. As a security measure, every time you open the browser you have to sign in with your Bitdefender Central account and then input your Master password.

    To stop the Central sign-in prompt, go into Settings and tick “Disable login tab on startup”.
    To stop the master password prompt for 72 hours, check the “Remember me” box on the Unlock your vault screen.

    I hope this helps.

    Hello everyone,

    I would like to add two small clarifications regarding my use:
    First, I always close my browser before locking my computer. This is why I need to log in to Bitdefender Password Manager every time. It may seem tedious, but I prefer to do it this way.
    Second, I use the password manager integrated with Microsoft Authenticator and Microsoft Edge at the same time.
