How to use this section

Use the Device and browser password guides directory to choose the page that matches the decision or problem you have now. Follow official provider links for account actions, and never enter a password or recovery code into an informational guide.

What belongs in this section

A browser or device can store a local copy of a credential without changing the credential at the service. Before deleting, exporting or migrating anything, confirm sync, backups and which account owns the stored vault.
