PassNGuard

PassNGuard is a fantastic tool if you juggle multiple accounts on your computer. It’s super important to keep all those usernames and passwords safe, right? Trying to manage them without a special app can really put your security at risk. That’s where PassNGuard comes in!

Setting Up PassNGuard

The first time you fire up the app, it’ll ask you to create a new database on your computer. Don’t worry; this database is encrypted, which means your credentials are kept under lock and key! Just type in a passphrase, and the app will tell you that no database is loaded yet. It’ll guide you through generating a new one.

Your Security Matters

PassNGuard was made with your safety and privacy in mind. One cool feature is that when entering your master passphrase, you can’t use the keyboard! Instead, you click each character on a scrambled keypad where the letters shuffle around every time you click. This makes it tougher for anyone trying to snoop!

No Sneaky Screenshots Allowed!

If someone tries to take a screenshot or record video while you're using PassNGuard, guess what? The window goes completely black! So even if there’s someone lurking nearby with bad intentions, they won’t see anything.

Adding Your Accounts

Once you've got your database set up, adding new entries is easy-peasy! Just hit the “+” button and fill in the required fields like username, password, URL, and any notes you want. Sensitive info stays hidden behind asterisks but can be shown temporarily by clicking “Show for 30 seconds.”

Password Generator Feature

If you're tired of thinking up passwords, PassNGuard has got your back with its password generator! You can pick from three types: “Normal,” “Pronounceable,” and “Pattern.” Just set what you need and hit “Generate.” You can even choose how long each password should be and include uppercase letters, numbers—whatever suits your needs!

Your Go-To Credential Storage Solution

So overall, if you're looking for a secure way to store all those credentials on your computer, PassNGuard might just be perfect for you! It has awesome features like scrambled keypads and protection against screen recording tools to keep everything secure while also helping generate strong passwords based on your rules.
