How to use the Password ManagerBandizip for macOS provides a password manager since v6.11; If you frequently compress and decompress archives with long and complex passwords, the password manager can make your job easier. CAUTION
Store a new password in the password manager![]() ![]()
NOTE: If you click Cancel or X (instead of OK) to close a dialog box, any modifications you make on the dialog box will not be saved. Compress with the stored password![]()
Decompress with the stored passwordIf a password in an archive is also stored in your password manager, it becomes easier to enter the password. ![]()
Set a master passwordUnless a master password is set, passwords stored in the password manager can be viewed by anyone who uses the PC. If you use the password manager on a public or shared computer, it is strongly recommended to set a master password. ![]()
NOTE: If you click Cancel or X (instead of OK) to close a dialog box, any modifications you make on the dialog box will not be saved. Once a master password is set, entry of the master password is required when accessing the password manager directly or viewing the passwords stored in the password manager for (de)compressing. If you’ve forgotten your master password, click Reset when you’re asked to enter the master password. Keep in mind that resetting the master password will also delete all the password information stored in the password manager. |
