Description
Dozens of site logins, and the passwords are either all the same or scribbled on a sticky note. Password Safe keeps it simple: every login goes into one local encrypted file, you remember a single master password, and nothing is uploaded to the cloud or tied to an account.
The interface is an old-school tree of groups, with banks, email and forums each in their own folder, and a double-click copies a password. A built-in generator makes strings by length and character type, and each entry keeps a history of its previous passwords so a bad change can be rolled back. A portable build lets you carry it on a USB stick.
One master password: All entries live in one encrypted database file. If you lose the master password the data cannot be recovered, so keep it safe.
Tree groups: Organise logins in nested folders so a long list stays easy to navigate.
Password generator: Set length, letter case, digits and symbols to produce a complex, unique password without inventing one yourself.
Password history: Old passwords are kept per entry, so you can recover one if a site never accepted the change.
Display and options: Appearance and behaviour are highly configurable.
