# CredMan

Credential Manager Dump

The `CredMan` command is designed to retrieve stored credentials from the Windows Credential Manager, which securely stores various credentials used for authentication across different services and applications on the system.

This command specifically targets and retrieves passwords associated with "Generic" type credentials stored in the Credential Manager. These credentials are often used for applications, websites, and services that require authentication.

It's important to note that "Domain" type credentials cannot be retrieved using this same method. To retrieve "Domain" type credentials, you can use the [`Dpapi`](/amnesiac/sessions/local-actions/dpapi.md) command.
