# My personal credentials

The ***My personal credentials*** feature is a single credential entry which is locally stored on your computer in your Windows user profile or on the database.

It is typically used to hold the Windows credentials for your running sessions because Remote Desktop Manager macOS cannot access them. If you cannot use integrated security then you must store your credentials in ***My personal credentials***.

This allows you to centralize one special credential to replace or emulate the ones for your Windows session. When a password change is needed you simply need to change it once in ***My personal credentials***.

If you want to change the credential type, go in `%LOCALAPPDATA%` (Default) or `%APPDATA%` (Remote Desktop Services) `\Devolutions\RemoteDesktopManager` and delete the Credentials.rdt file to reset it. This path can be modified in ***File***– ***My account settings***-***My personal credentials***- ***My privileged account***&#x6F;r ***File*** – ***My account settings*** - ***My privileged account***.

#### Devolutions Server workspace

***My personal credentials*** and ***My privileged account*** are supported in Devolutions Server. They can be configured from Remote Desktop Manager by going to ***File –*** ***My account settings - My personal credentials*** or ***File –*** ***My account settings - My personal credentials - My privileged account***.

Although configured in a Devolutions Server workspace in Remote Desktop Manager, these credentials are saved in the Devolutions Server database. Currently, only the credential types **Username/Password** and **Password List** are supported. They can be used in entries such as Website, RDP, and VPN, as well as in ***User-specific settings***.
