Random Password Creator

If you use a single password and e-mail address for all accounts, all it takes for them to be compromised is someone to gain access to your credentials in one location. To avoid this scenario, it is recommended to use different passwords every single time.

Random Password Creator is a small, portable program that can generate passwords using a user-defined set of parameters. It can use multiple characters sets, and the fact that it is open-source should help users who are uncertain about how the data is handled.

Since the application is portable, you won’t need to install anything before using it. Just select the right version for your operating system and launch it from any location on your PC.

To generate a password, simply select the character sets you wish to use, set the desired length and click Generate. The password will be displayed in the text box and can then be copied to the clipboard.

Of course, Random Password Creator cannot store any the passwords it generates, so you should have sure you have a secure way of saving these credentials.

There are plenty of specialized applications you can use for this purpose, though there is nothing stopping you from storing them in a document yourself. Just make sure it can’t be accessed easily, or your accounts may end up being compromised.

Most mainstream password managers now have built-in generators as well, but some do lack this functionality. In these situations, or if you prefer to handle everything manually, Random Password Creator can definitely prove helpful.

While not the most advanced application of its kind, it enables you to generate passwords that are complex enough not to be guessed or cracked easily. What’s more, it is open-source and fully portable.
