Pros
My passwords - only my passwords))
All my passwords I store here.
Cons
I hope, nothing serious can be written here )
Pros
If you like tinkering, the amount of customization you can do is insane. I'm not a programmer but I am a smart user with common sense and decent windows skills. My windows skills are as a power user of anything internet (not a ms office guy). So I bought some Bitcoin a couple of years ago and realized that the old game plan had to go.
I have been online since the day AOL launched and have signed up for everything from internet banking to 50 different forums. I have been managing 25 years of passwords in my head, of course by using same everywhere or a variation. It was starting to make me insane as is, but when Bitcoin entered my life I realized I had to make changes of my new Bitcoins would soon no longer be mine.
The sheer number of passwords I would need to do something about could either take the route of 1. just change the monetary, major social, and medical over and not worry about the other billion sites, OR 2. bite the bullet and do them all.
Cons
I should note that I am the guy in the picture next to the definition of obsessive disorder. I am the guy that would get the assignment for a major paper in College that was due EOS, 3 months out, and after a night of no sleep thinking about it I would start it the next day. But oh, no, it did not end there. I would stay awake for up to 96 hours, whatever was needed for that assignment, until it was finished. I could not stop and eat, sleep, whatever. I would get very dry and stand up to go buy a bottle of water and realize I could not support my weight because my legs were seized in place due to 36 hours of literally not moving out of what was always a wood/metal chair.
If I move from city to city, which I have had to do a few times in 30 years, when I get to destination city I will not only have to unpack every box and set up, but I would again not eat sleep, do anything until it was done. Done was defined by beds made, groceries purchased, all laundry done, any painting or mods
Summary
I am sure you guessed by now that I chose to do ALL 25 years of passwords. BTW, this compulsion I describe comes with stress and dread of anticipation because I know I won't stop. So, all depressed, but determined I began the process. As usual, I am so deep in an anxious state of panic that I literally have physical symptoms manifest as chest pain, elevated pulse, elevated BP etc.
Making this worse is the fact that I am of THE generation that did not mandate typing in school so we did not take it, yet we were the "founders" in the internet generation. I hunt and peck. I hunt and peck faster than 90% of all typists but IT SUCKS! It is physically demanding to hunt and peck. Honestly though, my graduation class could probably prove class action damages in not training us to type.
Also, remember I am not a programmer, just an educated businessman who ignored that training and now make a living online. I was worried about the program!
So, I began ---
Hm - this is easy!
2 Hours later I'm done.
At 3 Hours in I had customized thru a dozen Plug-ins.
At 3.5 hours I had it all color coded AND my auto type parameters for ALL of my sites had been programmed to take every key stroke, tab, and enter into account for all that sites needs. i.e. If a site called for tab, enter username, tab, enter PW, hit enter (whatever) to bu fully logged in, I had done that customization.
IT IS THE SIMPLEST THING I HAVE EVER STRESSED ABOUT!!
To those on the edge. Step inside. It feels so safe in here!!

You'd be great at learning to touch-type using a training app. I had a weird semi-correct technique for years until I used a program to teach myself to touch-type. Because I knew the keyboard layout already, it didn't take more than a couple of weeks to shed my old habits (because I didn't have to LOOK anymore!). Now my top speed is 90 WPM, with my eyes closed. Go for it, it's a life improver.

Download the best password mwnager
Pros
I have used several Password Managers thru the years and KeePass is the best one for me. It works with ALL of my website logons and application logons as well. For common type of website logon, it works without intervention. For the unusual type of website logon, you can configure a way to make it work with minimal intervention. There are many settings available for the user but it also works well without changing settings. The security features are excellent.
Cons
I have not been using this for online automatic form filling.
Summary
Among the many Password Managers I have tried, this is the best one. It works with every logon I have tried, including resident applications. Your logon data is stored locally and is encrypted, of course, and I back it up offline often.
Pros
Rich feature set normally found only in paid programs. Among them are autotype with an obfuscation setting, and organizing entries in folders. I have used this program for several years now to store over 200 passwords. In addition, I find it is a convenient place to store equipment serial numbers, software keys, and personal vital statistics.
Cons
The interface is a bit old fashioned, but so am I.
Summary
KeePass is really a fairly powerful database manager that is well-adapted to its function of securely storing passwords and other sensitive information.
Updated on Aug 2, 2013
This version adds a great convenience: Autotype and Open URL are now on the toolbar.
Pros
Free and it holds all 39 of my passwords. No auto-capture - you have to enter details by hand - but it does have very fast auto-login. Didn't ask for personal details or any login with your e-mail address.
Cons
Kinda klunky but it works, and if you like hands-on gizmos, you'll like this.
Summary
Kinda off putting at first, but it'll grow on 'ya!
Pros
Compact functioning and portable
Cons
Takes a little time to understand (but worth it)
Summary
The multi-factor encryption means this is a fine way to carry a large number of passwords around with you without having too many concerns about loss of the password safe itself. I now habitually have 20+ character passwords and use the auto-type functionality. For clarity I'm still hanging on at v2.14 so haven't used v2.19 yet but assuming it continues to function as well, this is a key part of my traveling tool kit.
Pros
works great
Cons
I was a little lost at how to get started, but didn't take too long to figure it out.
Summary
Works great, free, so its for me.
Pros
Easy, safe, secure. and helps me when I forget my passwords.
Cons
None found yet
Summary
Recommended for anyone that needs to remember passwords and has trouble, great for high security sites
