Clear all Adobe App credentials from Windows Credential Manager
# Inspired on https://community.adobe.com/t5/download-install-discussions/getting-a-long-list-of-quot-adobe-app-info-quot-generic-credentials/td-p/10189222
# Usage: add this script to your PowerShell profile and run "ClearAdobeCredentials". "Adobe User" credentials will not be removed.
<# Commands explanation:
cmdkey /list > This will list all your saved credentials
Select-String -Pattern "Adobe App" > Show only credentials that match "Adobe App"
-replace "^ *[A-Za-z]+:? (.*)", "`"`$1`"") > Regex that removes " Target:" and add quotes around the credential
% { cmdkey /delete:$_ } > This will run "cmdkey /delete" for each matching credential
#>
function ClearAdobeCredentials { ((cmdkey /list | Select-String -Pattern "Adobe App") -replace "^ *[A-Za-z]+:? (.*)", "`"`$1`"") | % { cmdkey /delete:$_ } }

I have tried using the following, and it worked for me.

  1. Open Powershell and run the following commands
    • The following will remove Adobe credentials
      cmdkey /list | Select-String "Adobe" -SimpleMatch | ForEach-Object { cmdkey /delete:($_ -replace "^.+?Target: ","") }

    • The Following will remove Microsoft credentials
      cmdkey /list | Select-String "Microsoft" -SimpleMatch | ForEach-Object { cmdkey /delete:($_ -replace "^.+?Target: ","") }

Hello @Atha1Kishan.

The problem with your method is that “Target:” would only match if your OS is set to English. For example, in Spanish the word is "Destino".
