Is there an equivalent of the OS X Keychain, used to store user passwords, in Windows? I would use it to save the user's password for a web service that my (desktop) software uses.
From the answers to this related question (Protecting user passwords in desktop applications (Rev 2)) and the multitude of third party password storage tools available, I assume that such a thing doesn't exist-- Am I stuck with either asking for the password each time I access the web service, or just storing it obfuscated?
It is year 2018, and Windows 10 has a "Credential Manager" that can be found in "Control Panel"
