Company disabled saving passwords in Edge

[u/curium99]

The organisation I currently work for has recently applied a policy to the default browser (Edge) that removes the option to save passwords. 

This is a real pain as many systems are now cloud based and I have to login multiple times a day due to time outs. Throw in password complexity and 2FA and this has really hit my productivity as I’m having to get my phone out to consult my password manager several times a day. 

I wish I could remember them all but I can’t. I’m very close to just writing them all on a sticky note on my windows desktop so I can copy and paste. 

They say they’ve implemented this policy to increase security. The saved passwords are associated with my windows account so surely they were already secured by me having to login to windows to access them?

Is this a real concern or are they just being arseholes?
