Ändere meine vorherige Bewertung mit Kritik zum Aufruf des Password Managers, dieser lässt sich leicht als Erweiterung im jeweiligen Browser installieren und dann auch direkt aufrufen!

One of those bits of software that at times brings tears of frustration, but having committed to it the change away is difficult. For example, if one changes one's password it doesn't give one the chance to remove the old one. Aaaarggghhhh!!! It then populates with the old one.

Why change something that worked well and was useful. I cannot open PM now despite trying many times. You are about to loose a loyal member.
