I have mounted a windows system from a folder.

First I pressed ctrl + l. Then on top in location by SMB protocol I connected to the remote system. I provide the remote system username and password for the first time. Also marked to save the password.

So, for the next time I only provide the SMB url and it connects to the remote system. I found inside my home folder, there is an hidden folder .gvfs got created. Inside that folder I found the mounted remote system.

Even I restart the machine, it doesn't ask for the username and password again. Ubuntu must store the username and password of the remote system. Where does it store these?
