Why do sites not be a little more helpful with regard to passwords. Some you use regularly are not an issue, but then you go to a site that you use once a flood. You put in the password that you are sure is correct and you get the wrong password message with the " I have forgotten my password " link. You click on that to reset and it helpfully tells you of the password requirements ... capital letter / no symbols or whatever. Then you remember that the password was correct except for a capital at the beginning! Why can't the requirements be offered when you are struggling to remember and make an error? I hate ( most ) modern technology.
Get your computer to suggest an obscure password and remember it. Macs can, sure Windows machines do as well. Having strong passwords is a good thing.
The problem is, the passwords suggested by your computer are so random, I doubt anyone would be able to remember them. I certainly wouldn’t. I use SecureSafe.
generate me own passwords - even got hints posted on internet for example on a scrap of paper I have written s13 s being my email address - 13 - 13th place on my posted internet page which is birmingham - my connection to birmingham my first car "minixxxxxx" complicated ?- only to those that don,t know lol ( birmingham isn,t on the list by the way )
As recommended earlier, I also use lastpass, passwords are saved and accessible from any device I'm on.
Ive got one really good one that no one could ever guess, its tattooed on my winky. I hope I never need to change it !!! The only issue I have is when I need to log in at the library
While possible, it's unlikely to let your passwords out https://www.lastpass.com/security/what-if-lastpass-gets-hacked
