    PlayOnline ID & Square-Enix Account

    Why since I linked my Square-Enix Account to my PlayOnline ID I need to put my Square-Enix Account password everytime I start PlayOnline Viewer?

    Is there a way to save that password like we can do with the PlayOnline ID?

    It is freaking me out to put it everytime! lol

    It's annoying, but can't be helped. There's no way to save that, which is also kinda the point of it, annoying as it may be.

    It was done that way to avoid there being a file with the stored password that another program might be able to read, because an exploit like that had compromised POL accounts in the past. That's also why they made Security Tokens available for SE accounts.
