Brief hint for Windows users who work with the credentials management to have credentials saved. Instead of deleting entries manually, this can be done with a few lines of batch code. I recently came via Twitter across the corresponding batch program and put the information as a tip here in the blog.

In Windows there is the so called Windows Credential Manager, that can store credentials for websites and network resources, so that they can be retrieved and used the next time you log in.
For security reasons, the entries in the Manager (accessible via the Control Panel) can be deleted individually by the user. If you want to completely delete the information stored in the Windows Credential Manager, you can do so with a batch program. Thorsten E. recently addressed the issue in the following tweet.
Tom Fanning has put his batch file online on GitHub. This page discusses various ways to delete the credentials. Maybe someone can use it sometime.
