Iron Password

Iron Password is a security app specially developed for Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 users, capable of generating any number of complex passwords made from lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers, and symbols.

It doesn't have complicated customization properties, so it's aimed at all types of users looking to enhance protection for their email accounts, wireless network connections, applications, documents, private photos, or any other sensitive information.

The utility can be downloaded from the Microsoft Store and seamlessly integrated with the Start Screen in Windows 8 and 8.1, along with the Start Menu in Windows 10.

It's packed in a user-friendly interface, made from a large window with a dark background and intuitive structure. Instructions are displayed on the right side of the screen.

All you have to do is specify the password length (number of character) along with the number of keys to generate, as well as click a button to quickly create the new passwords. These can be just as easily copied to the Clipboard to paste in a text editor and save to file for safekeeping, as long as you make sure that no one else can gain access to this file to learn the secret codes.

If you fear that someone is looking over your shoulder, you can ask Iron Password to make the keys invisible. The list of results can be cleared to make room for new keys. Unfortunately, the lightweight application doesn't implement options for customizing the password complexity, in order to exclude uppercase or lowercase letters, numbers or symbols, or to create a list with personalized characters to use while excluding the others.

It worked smoothly in our testing, without causing the operating system to freeze, crash or indicate errors. System resources usage was minimal, since it needed a low amount of CPU and RAM to function normally.

To wrap it up, Iron Password comes to your aid whenever you need to generate random and strong passwords to protect sensitive information. It can be seamlessly handled by all types of users.
