Assessing your password strength

Using strong passwords for logon to your websites and programs is an important aspect of protecting your identity.

You can check the strength of the passwords you use for your logons on the Password Manager Password Strength tab.

Password Manager Icon settings

Password Manager attempts to identify logon screens for websites and programs. When it finds a logon screen that you have not created a logon for, Password Manager will prompt you to add a logon for the screen by displaying the Password Manager icon with a "+" sign.

The following settings are configurable:

●Always prompt - Select this option to have Password Manager prompt you to add a logon whenever a logon screen displays that does not already have a logon set up for it.

●Do not prompt for this screen - Select this option so that Password Manager will not prompt you again to add a logon for this specific logon screen.

●Never prompt - Select this option to ensure that Password Manager never prompts you for logon screens that have not been set up.

Additional Privacy Manager settings are available by selecting Password Manager > Windows password > green arrow > Settings in Security Manager.
