Hi,

I am new to pgAdmin and PostgreSQL. I am configuring a new server
connection and I can see there's an option to save my server's password.

How secure is this option? Does it save my password as plaintext or does it
save inside Windows protection or other form of encryption?

Best wishes,

Michel.
