Windows 7 Credential Manager
I am using a Windows 7 Home Premium machine on a corporate network, it is possible to access internal network resources such as Sharepoint, file servers, and printers, however I am often prompted to provide a user name and password, even though I have ticked the box to save the credentials. Is it possible to enter a domain\username and password in a way that will remove the need to keep providing credentials to each service accessed and make this persistent in the credential manager such that the only time changes need to be made is when the user changes their password

Your problem is you never can logon to the domain using this version of windows, your there working not as a domain user. If you could work on as loged in to the domain as a domain user you wouldnt have these problems. Now since your not recognized, you get prompted for credentials by the domain. If this is a private machine then i gues you like it this way, its yours and you have full control over it. if you own a company PC then ask your administrator to upgrade your version of windows and join their domain. (premium version cannt join domains). but be advised then probaply your system falls under their view of security then you will be in total control anymore. but if thats ok, i dont see a problem, you can also ask to become local administrator of the machine once joined the domain. So you have still al lot of control of your machine. but i gues you will also need to aply to your companies security view.. so no longer games on that system for example..
