The problem is the same whether using the browser extension or the LastPass vault page directly. I find it absurd - and maddening - that there is no single-click method to Generate a Secure Pasword while editing or creating a password in a Windows browser. This issue is so problematic, that I personally feel is should be reported as a major bug, not a Feature "Suggestion". Would love to hear if anyone has a workaround - in an enterprise setting, where you can't use the browser extensions. Save password in LastPass, and create userĪll I want is a simple button to bring up the password generator, and allow that to populate the password in the New Password screen.
Get sinking feeling as you realise you either have to come out of that page and start again - or open another window to some other site to generate a password - or just make up some thing on the spot. Open New Password dialog, and start typing details of the site, and the username you've chosen. Go to create new credentials (and think - I need to save this to LastPass too). Realise you don't have this in your vault (after searching in Vault window). The reason this is really frustrating, is because you don't typically 'know' you need a password before you need one - and it still hits me every time - after using LastPass for years. Password Generator | LastPass - but that always assumes you're not a user, and tries to sign you up - which is also irritating Also - as it's evidently a single page app - I can't see how I can 'link' to the password generator separately. Currently I would have to literally go to another site, or come out of the workflow, to go to the (weirdly buried - under Advanced Options - really!?) Generate Password page, copy, and paste etc. If I have to 'create' a new password at work - there is currently no way (inexplicably) to generate a password from within the 'New Password' page in the web Vault. I consider it a 'must have' that I can 'paste' a password - so mobile apps are out in this case. This also, importantly means that I have to use the 'Vault' website, to access passwords on my work computer.
I am a LastPass personal user, and use LastPass for 'work' passwords too, as my company hasn't agreed on a password manager solution at this stage.īeing a large enterprise, this means I can't install the LastPass browser extension - which obviously makes the experience less seamless. All I want is a simple button to bring up the password generator, and allow that to populate the password in the New Password screen within the Vault Website (for people who - in particular situations, cannot use the web extension/mobile apps)
