UPDATE: Passbox v2.0 has been released. New features in Passbox v2.0 include:
PassBox – Free Password Manager
PassBox is a handy little tool that will remember all your passwords. You just have to set and remember one password for PassBox, and you can save all the other passwords in it. And if you forget your PassBox password, you can use the “forgot password” option and you will receive an e-mail on your recovery e-mail address, giving you the new password.
When you fire it up for the first time, it asks you to enter a new password and the recovery e-mail. Giving the email ID is optional. Once done, you are all ready to save your passwords.
Click the “Add new” button on the menu and a form appears. Enter the name of the account, your User ID, password, recovery question and its answer and you are done! You have saved a password. The next time you want to see the password, just click on the “View Passwords” options, select an account and view the password and all the other information that you saved along with it.
PassBox – Free Password Generator
That’s not all. PassBox can even suggest passwords for your account. Just hit the “Generate” button and the password generator appears in a new window. You just have to select the length of the password and whether or not you need special characters in the password. Boom! Hit the “Generate” button and you get your new password, which can be quite interesting.
PassBox sports a Modern UI with a user-friendly interface. There are no pop-ups, no useless buttons or confusing instructions. Just fire it up, save and view your passwords and you’re done. That is the best part.
PassBox saves all your data in a secure, encrypted format that cannot be accessed without PassBox and your password.PassBox uses a combination of MDF and DES algorithms and the encrypted password can only be decrypted with the PassBox software after entering the master password for PassBox. After using PassBox once, you will never need to remember any password. NOTE: PassBox does not connect to the internet. You can check the activity in the Task Manager. It will, however, need Internet access to send you the mail, only if you exercise the Forgot Password option to recover the forgotten master password.
PassBox v2 has been tested on Windows 8 Pro and Windows 7 Ultimate, both 64-Bit & 32-Bit, but works on Windows 10 too. You can download the portable version by clicking here.
