Hi Sandeep,

Thanks for your post.

Normally, after user input the password, to implement remember password
feature, we can use some .Net encapsulation technology to protect the
password into cipher text. Then we can serialize the cipher text to certain
file for persistent. At next running time, the applicaiton can try to read
this persistent storage then decript the cipher text into plain text to
compare with the new user input password.

You can also store the password cipher text in some more secure place, such
as IsolatedStorageFile. For more information, you can search
IsolatedStorageFile in MSDN.

Hope this helps
