I don't understand this.
I have used Netbeans since version 5.0 and it has never asked for a
password of any kind. I have also been using version 8.1 for the last 18
months on Linux Mint, still with no password requested.
Do you have it set to require super user access maybe? If so then I
suggest re-installing with access for all users.

Hello,
I'm using NB 8.1/8.2/dev on Arch Linux.
When starting NetBeans, I'm asked for the master password, with the
following hint:
"The IDE can remember passwords for you, protected by a master
password. If you have not chosen one yet, do so now; you will be
prompted for it in subsequent sessions when needed. You can also
change the master password whenever you are prompted for it."
The passwords will be stored in some keystore. I've found the
following related link: http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqMasterPasswordDialog
Obviously, in releases 7.x, setting the master password could be
optionally enabled. Since 8.x it seems to be required.
However, as the document contains the following phrase: "[...] as of
NetBeans 6.9 the IDE tries to use your operating system's native
facility to store passwords.", using either password store should not
be specified by netbeans, but by underlying OS instead. But I don't
now if either keystore could be disabled on a per-application-basis.
However, NetBeans looks for available keystores and sorts them
according to a position number - kwallet having position number 99,
keyring having 100, so kwallet "wins".
You could set "netbeans.keyring.no.native=true", then neither should
be used.
However, I don't see any possibility in the current code, to switch
the keystore used. You could implement a property to switch the
keystore, my personal favorite would be
"org.netbeans.modules.keyring.preferredKeystore" (a preferred keystore
allows to find some other, if it is not available). The code should be
added to api the "keyring" module (class "Keyring" could store both
results and return the preferred one, if found).
Kind regards

Hello List,
Whenever I start netbeans-8.0.2 the KDE Wallet is launched and
regardless of the look-and-feel, GTK+ or otherwise. How can I stop
this from happening? My Os is Ubuntu Linux 17.10.
