I am creating code to open website in vb.net and passing the use name and password to that site. But I got error " Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password"

This is my code. What's wrong in that

VB
Dim domain As String = "google.com"
        Dim username As String = "Username"
        Dim password As New System.Security.SecureString
 Dim plainPassword As String = "password"
        For Each c In plainPassword.ToCharArray
            password.AppendChar(c)
        Next c
          Process.Start("C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe", "https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?service=mail&passive=true&rm=false&continue=https://mail.google.com/mail/?tab%3Dwm&scc=1&ltmpl=default&ltmplcache=2", username, password, domain)

I'm not Sure with this technology, But as a Suggestion,
If Your code is Right and Not working means Be sure You have Disabled 2 Step Verification (or) You're Using Application Specific Password to Login

1 solution

Should that %3D be there?
are you URLEncoding the &tab parameter value?
maybe that should be &tab=wm instead of &tab=%3Dwm

without user name and password that code works fine. But when I enter password and username it throws error. I want to copy username and password from from my application to website login page
