On Windows, passwords are encrypted using the Windows Data Protection API (​DPAPI) and stored in the user.config file in the ​application support directory.

Unfortunately this does not look feasible

  • Windows 10.1703 (15063.296) only allows up to 20 passwords to be saved per application
You can only store up to ten credentials per app in the Credential Locker. If you try to store more than ten credentials, you will encounter an Exception.
