Exactly. That's why browsers insist you "log on". I've never "logged into a browser" and never let any of them save credentials. Heck, I don't even save credentials to access shares within my own LAN.

Well you've clearly been hacked, Windows 10 wasn't available back in 2004 so it must be a fake!

Not a problem I'd ever have because I'd never let a third party (Man,Beast, or Machine) manage my credentials.
Somehow I've managed to survive without synch'd browsers. Who would have guessed it to be possible?
It is reasonable to assume, at this point, that your financial institution credentials are now somewhere/anywhere/everywhere on the web.

You and me both, bro.

What I'd do? Change the credentials. See what gets broken as a result. Enter your credentials manually yourself from now own. ![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) automated processes. Leave them broken.

Logging into Windows with MS credentials is scary. By doing so, you've agreed to store much of your data at MS.

I have learnt now that with the new browser (Edge-Chrome) it is possible to turn off the synching of passwords only. What I need to do after turning it off, is to change my passwords.

If you are paranoid, make it a habit to disable your network connection whenever you do not actually do work on the internet, but e.g. edit documents. Every time you start Word with a network connection available, a report goes to a logging service; I do not know what the log report contains. Similar with other software: There are lots of them sending reports.
If you open a local encrypted file, it is safest to do it with the network disabled; you never know who picks up you keystroke. In principle, all your keystrokes may be buffered while you are offline, and the whole batch sent when you go online, but today, 95+ % of all users are online all the time, so I guess the keyloggers assume that they can send the log as soon as a small buffer has filled up, with no provisions for delayed sending. I have never seem any indication of delayed transmission.

Gamification is the name of the game, told you

I might change my focus but if I did it certainly wouldn't be for games. I had the opportunity to do that and I passed. It is the only area I am aware of that is more abusive of people than my one is so I saw little point in it.
What happened is I was formerly a member of game modding team and we put out a couple of really good mods and then the team decided to go pro. Several people did so and after about five years all but a few had bailed out and now not one of them have any interest in the genre of games we were making mods for. This is the second instance I have seen first hand whereby when your hobbies become a business they lose all attraction as a hobby. I tried that in a whole different area and seriously jaded me for that hobby too. Now I try my best to keep my hobbies and business separate and it has worked out pretty well. I enjoy my hobbies again.
FWIW, that game company is still going and only one person from the original team is involved. The curious thing is two people from my subsequent team also work for that company and they are still making well-received games.

Massage a red coin into messages. (14)

Yep. Care to add the solution?

Not really, no! 
All I've got is Massage as an anagram indicator... COMM as red; bits of A COIN INTO add to the anagram; and COMMUNICATIONS is 14 letters and means MESSAGES...
So looking forward to the full solution

A + COMMUNIST + COIN => shuffle => COMMUNICATIONS.
You're up tomorrow, of course.
Cheers,
Peter

These anagrams are getting old. They are too easy. I liked it much better when your CCC would go unsolved for days.

Probably googled "Plz urgent How to implement retrieving credentials when lost" and copied the code snippet.
