Reviewed by: CNET Staff
You can create passwords with ease using this simple application, but you won't find the extras (like choosing password strength) that more sophisticated programs offer.
Password Generator's small interface is designed with quick setup in mind. You can include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numbers, and choose length before creating your password. With basic check boxes and buttons, the process is intuitive, and though the Help file is found only online, you shouldn't need any guidance using the program. There's nothing wrong with Password Generator's functionality, either, and it churned out passwords one-by-one for any character and length settings.
Still, in a category with so many choices, its feature set isn't on par with its competitors. Similar programs include a selection of algorithms for a more secure password, or allow you to create multiple passwords at once. The trial version has a 10-day trial restriction. Password Generator works, and couldn't be easier to use, but with its limited feature set it doesn't stand up to the competition.
Publisher's description
From Password Protect Software :Password Generator is a software program designed to generate random passwords of any length and character content. Just select the password length and click the Generate Now button. In a second you will get a random password, which is very difficult to crack due to a random combination of lower and upper-case letters and numbers.
