After the user provides credential information, CredUI extracts the domain and user account name from a fully qualified user name. The encrypted credentials are stored in the for use on later connections. Therefore, the next time that the user connects to a server, the authentication process can start immediately, without having to retype credentials. CredUI also provides a Save my password check box that enables a user to request that the credentials be stored on the thin client. With CredUI, the user must enter credential information that will be passed to the remote server and validated during the authentication process. After the user clicks Connect on the Windows Embedded CE Terminal Services Client (CETSC) user interface (UI), the RDP client calls the CredUI dialog box and displays it to the user. For Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R2, Credential Management User Interface (CredUI) is a new feature that prompts the user to enter their username and password, or their Smart Card PIN.
