# Activate or deactivate account autosave

{% hint style="info" %}
**Who can use this feature?**

* Workspace **Owners**, **Super Admins**, **Admins**, and **Users**
* Only supported using the browser extension
  {% endhint %}

As a workspace member with any role, except **Guest users** and **Login-Only**, you can activate or deactivate the account autosave feature to control whether the **Add a new account to Cerby** dialog box appears when logging in or signing up for an account through its website.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**IMPORTANT:** This feature may be restricted by your workspace **Admin** for all workspace members by the following settings:

* **Prompted autosave:** When logging in or signing up for an account in allowed domains configured in the workspace, a prompt dialog box asks whether you want to save your credentials to Cerby. You can choose to save or skip the account autosave.
* **Enforced autosave:** When you log in or sign up for an account in a specified domain, Cerby automatically saves the credentials.

For more information, read the article [account autosave](https://help.cerby.com/getting-started/concepts/credential-management/account-autosave).
{% endhint %}

To activate or deactivate the account autosave feature, you must complete the following steps:

1. Open the Cerby browser extension.
2. Log in to your workspace.
3. Click the **Settings** () icon located at the top right of the browser extension popup. The **Settings** page is displayed.
4. Activate or deactivate the **Account autosave** switch, as **Figure 1**.

Now you are done.
