Explanation

Windows Credential Manager stores two types of credentials: Windows credentials (used for network shares, Remote Desktop, etc.) and Web credentials (used for websites). The key distinction is what can be revealed in plain text through the UI. Web credentials - whether for HTTP or HTTPS sites - display a 'Show' button next to the stored password, allowing the password to be revealed in clear text. Windows credentials do not have this option; their passwords are stored encrypted and cannot be displayed in plain text from the Credential Manager interface. Therefore, both the web credential for the HTTPS URL (A) and the web credential for the HTTP URL (E) can be viewed in clear text. The three Windows credentials - shared folder, Remote Desktop, and HTTP URL - cannot be viewed in clear text from Credential Manager.
