Remember new password
« on: September 02, 2018, 10:08:02 AM »
Hi,

When i'm logged on a web site and want to change the password using AVAST password generator (which is usefull).

- It states in the generator's box:    "AVAST will remember your password"
- So I click                                     "enter the new password"

The website has a new password, but I lost it:
- AVAST does not remember it
- nor update it in the database.
- Unless I did copy  (CTRL + C) and go paste it inside AVAST

Does this function work at all on any website, or should the generator box just tell us to copy paste the new strong password?

Thanks,
keep the good work.

I've also had this happen and have reported this to Avast. Let's see if that helps. :)
