Access Windows Credentials in Credential Manager

Question

Using the Windows.Security.Credentials.PasswordVault class, I can access the passwords stored under "Web Credentials" in the Windows Credential Manager:

using System;
using Windows.Security.Credentials;

class Program {
    static void Main(string[] args) {
        PasswordVault vault = new PasswordVault();
        foreach (var cred in vault.RetrieveAll()) {
            cred.RetrievePassword();
            Console.WriteLine("Resource: {0}", cred.Resource);
            Console.WriteLine("UserName: {0}", cred.UserName);
            Console.WriteLine("Password: {0}", cred.Password);
        }
    }
}

I would like to know if there's a way to retrieve the credentials stored under "Windows Credentials" instead.

Answer 1

There is a Nuget library called CredentialManagement http://nuget.org/packages/CredentialManagement/ from the answer here: Retrieve Credentials from Windows Credentials Store using C#

works perfectly

        var cm = new Credential();
        cm.Target = "mycredentialname";

        if (!cm.Exists())
        {
            Console.WriteLine("cm is null");
        }
        cm.Load();
        Console.WriteLine("Password: " + cm.Password);
        Console.WriteLine("Username: " + cm.Username);
