My Safe

Keeping your account details save might be a bit of a hassle, especially if you use different passwords for all your accounts. However, developers came out with solutions in the form of specialized applications like My Safe, which are easy to edit and even to protect with a custom password.

The application comes in a pretty lightweight package, with no setup required to make it work. As such, you can store it on a thumb drive to have your account details wherever you go and easily access them from any computer. No registry entries are modified in the process, so you can rest assured that the health status of the target PC is not affected.

Note that the default password is “1234” to be able to access the application. However, directly running it is only a method of exploring existing elements, because there are no direct options of editing or creating new account credentials, which has an impact on overall practicality.

On the visual side of things, the overall design is a command line interface, since the application is nothing more than a batch file. This means that anyone can easily edit the core functionality of the application with the help of any plain text editor.

On the other hand, this can be used to your advantage, even though it requires a bit of code knowledge. Editing the BAT file, even with Notepad makes it easy to change the master password. What’s more, this is the only way through which to add account credentials, and this method provides no restrictions, so you’re free to include any text strings, details, and even more bits of code.

In conclusion, My Safe might not be a fully-fledged password manager, especially because of the way items are handled. You need to always keep it by your side, because even without the master password anyone can edit or at least view account details by simply opening the BAT file with a plain text editor.
