PasswordMaker Pro Extension

** One Password to rule them all **

This is equivalent to https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/passwordmaker-org/fckpmekmkjglpmdcbfkchimdelcjiipd

This is a browser extension that works for Chrome, Firefox, and other Chromium based browsers which is a flexible password generation tool that creates unique, secure passwords that are very easy for you to generate but no one else. Your passwords are never stored anywhere, anytime, so there's no database to be hacked, lost, or stolen; unlike the many popular password managers available.

To use, click the golden ring and provide PasswordMaker with at least two pieces of information:

1) A \"master password\" -- that one, single password you like
2) The URL of the website requiring a password
3) Customize per website password generation settings (optional)

PasswordMaker will then generate a unique password using a one-way hash algorithm of your choosing to generate a unique password for every website which is both extremely configurable and user friendly.

This technique has been widely used since 2003 and is 100% compatible with the other versions of PasswordMaker for other devices and computers which you can find at https://www.passwordmaker.org/ for more information. So, if you switch to a different platform, you can still easily generate all your passwords, for all your sites as long as you can remember your master password and password profile setting for the site.

Since I have inherited this project I have added many new and useful features such as strength meters, username form filling, removed all dangerous extension permissions, HiDPI display scaling, added PBKDF2 & AES encryption where needed, and many other visual, usability and performance enhancements. :)

It is advisable to always keep a back-up of your current profile data!

1.0.2 - 2024-02-04
* Improve username and password filling
* Detect username field when sites separate username page and password page
* Add SHA-512 integrity check for sjcl.js so users know it's unmodified
* Browser agnostic now instead of Chrome specific
* Fixed and optimized regex profile matching
* Added section for sync information
* Added ability to reorder profiles
* Added ability to set zoom level of popup
* Sync support should be fixed v2
* Source compatible with Firefox, Chrome, Edge and Opera
* Removed jQuery dependency!
* Added a description/notes field that was used in the original PasswordMaker for issue #176
* Profile search function looks at profile name, site list, use this text, username and description

Manon (ID: 0000001f2821aeb1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/11/2021 Using it since years, works well!

(ID: ) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/16/2017 I've been a passwordmaker.org user for many many years and this program is closest in functionality to the original. It works very well, as well as offline, and now is identical on firefox. The big pro is the customized password templates are held locally and not in a central server. You can optionally sync them between desktop browsers on different PCs if you choose but not mandatory, which risks putting the customized password template on a supposed secure server.
