I've gone to the Tools / Internet Options / Content / Autocomplete / Settings and checked off everything there. One was not checked off, that being the one called "feeds" and upon doing that - it did ask me once to save a password. After that though, I've tried on several attempts to save a password on different forums and no way hozay!!! Help will be quite appreciated if one can get me through this one. Thanks!!!

This is a bug with IE10. Login to the same website in "Compatibility View" and then check whether the passwords are saved.

I've done gone and did the Reset to no avail. I did the Compatibility View and that worked with one website. The other it did not. So one out of two is better than 0 out of 2.
But if it is a known bug as you state tarunp, then we should be expecting (no telling how long) a fix for that. It might be in IE20 but who knows - they might make a mistake and do it right!!!

I ran the scannow - I saw a black window pop up for a split second and disappear. Is that normal, or do I wait for a meltdown?

Uninstall the Updates, re-install them one by one and check your IE10, some of the Windows updates are making it difficult for the users.

You're suggesting uninstalling each update? I think I have 22 updates. The snag with that is, I've seen that from day one and then I've seen the same thing in Windows 7 with IE8 & 9.
From what I'm gathering on the Microsoft forums, it's a Windows thing, although it is not being said that way. The fact there is no definite easy fix tells me Microsoft has got to grapple with it. I was kind of hoping at the beginning there might be a way someone had found to overcome it, but I'm not finding anything to state that yet - anywhere.
Thanks for the suggestion and effort - appreciated!

I know it's a tedious task, you could try a Refresh or Reset and as a last resort do a clean install and create an image back up.

Did the Reset which produced nothing. I wouldn't go as far as doing a Refresh or Clean Install especially since this has been an ongoing issue since IE8 or earlier. Microsoft hasn't the answers either for this one, other than IE10 etc is not saving all Passwords.

Did you leave a space between SFC and /, try copying the command and paste in cmd.

Not sure if I'm following you. I typed in sfc and it did something but not sure what? I am running of course as Administrator. Also typed in sfc cmd - it seems to be saying what can be done instead of what it has done. Is this making sense at all?

ok - I've typed in sfc/scannow - it is presently doing its thing. I hit my head into the wall and realized (I think) what you are instructing me to do. If not, please advise.

    Using non-RAID on purpose as I find it too fussy and temperamental.
"Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."

For some weird and wonderful reason, Microsoft is not on top of the saving password issue. It's been an ongoing thing since I can remember, and that was about three years of age. :-}
