Secure password generator
If you have ever ran into trouble trying to create a new password for your Google, Yahoo, eBay or Microsoft account, this handy and secure password generator will help you out. It includes lower and upper-case letters, numbers and special characters which is often required today. You can choose between 1 and 32 characters too, I recommend 12 as a minimum, but some websites are still using 8 characters so you may need to check the websites requirements.
Instructions
- Select the password length between 1 and 32 characters from the drop-down menu (default is 12)
- Click the Generate button
- Click inside the password box, the text will automatically highlight
- Right-click over the password, then select Copy
TIP: Paste the password into a plain text file (Notepad) and keep it in a safe place (like a USB Flash Drive), then paste into the websites’ new password box. It’s good to have a single text file with all your passwords, make sure you back it up though!
