is there a folder or registry setting you can copy to a pendrive and take to a similarly equipped IE11 machine , copy back or merge back.
this is to save decrypting or resetting a good few
the machine they are on , is a win 8.1 , the new machine is a win 10 development one

This may be of help:

Use another browser , I know old habits , use Keepass or such like , or do what 75% of the world do use the same password for everything0

thank you (fightsback), I followed your link and tried copying over the \\\\vault folder , it did not work , I then tried using the inbuilt windows credentials to copy and export , then import , alas still no go
regarding passwords , many websites , if you reset due to loosing/forgetting will not let you use your original password again.
some ask for a minimum of 8 , some ask for upper case and lowercase , some want a mix of upper , lower and numbers .0 -
IE PassView is a small password management utility that reveals the passwords stored by Internet Explorer Web browser.It supports all versions of Internet Explorer, from version 4.0 and up to 11.0.

can Lass Pass extract passwords (and user names )from one machine and allow you to configure the new machine to use them without any prompting ?
also is this programme free to use as a full non trail (bits missing) unit with no internet/cloud or other methods of storage , just a simple pendrive?0
