Store Username And Password In Windows 7

You can use Windows 7 Credential Manager to save important credentials like user name and password so that you can easily login to different network computers. Once you have saved your credentials, Windows 7 will automatically log you in to other computers when you access them. These credentials are saved in Windows Vault. Credential Manager is not a new concept, Microsoft has already used similar feature in Windows Vista, but for Windows 7 Microsoft has added the ability to back up & restore your credentials. You can add Windows credentials, Generic Credentials and Certificate-Based Credentials.
To open windows Credential Manager go to Start -> Control Panel -> Credential Manager.
Click Add a Windows Credential and then enter Internet or network address, user name and password and click OK. It will be saved securely in the vault and from next time you can easily login to this particular network host with saved credentials.

Note : Control Panel view should be other than category
