I am a beginner. I viewed several tutorials before I stumbled on to this video. Most others go very fast. In spite of repeated viewing other videos, I was nowhere near to understanding the steps. You go slowly, repeat the steps linearly and non-linearly so the viewer understands the steps. Excellent video! Bitwarden should pay you. Thank you for helping me.

Bitwarden Password Manager Beginners Guide (100)

@passwordbits 3 жыл бұрын

I'm not sure I understand your question? It's one email address for login per Bitwarden account, you don't need another one. Your other email account doesn't need a Bitwarden account, you can do everything from one. You can store as many email accounts as you want in one Bitwarden account, they're the same as any other online account. Bitwarden only needs an email address for login and to send you alerts.

So just out of curiosity: if you are going to write the master password down and store it in your safe, is it not a better option to not use dictionary words as parts of it but a set of random characters? Or maybe it doesn't matter at this point when we use at least several words with mixed cases, spaces, numbers or some other special characters?

Bitwarden Password Manager Beginners Guide (116)

@passwordbits 2 жыл бұрын

You want to use multiple random words as it's easier to type and less likely to mistype, none of that "is that a 1 or an l". It's also easier to type words on a mobile device with their keyboards too. The reason you write it down is that things happen and if you forget it you're locked out forever. I've created a passphrase cracking calculator if you want to see how long it would take to crack your passphrase here: passwordbits.com/passphrase-cracking-calculator/

The best place to learn about cracking passwords has been here on KZbin, here is one recent video that I found interesting about cracking long passwords... kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZO8dZWobZpmi9k Yubikey using U2F is the best protection you can get but most people don't need it. I'm more concern with getting people to use unique and long master passwords first and then email or TOTP 2FA next. The passphrase cracker goes off PBKDF2 SHA-256 that Bitwarden and most other password manager use. I've included in the post a source for the calculation and how I came to the numbers from real-world examples.

From what i understand, once you're on the gmail page, bitwarden will tell you how many logins it has for that site and you pick which one you're going to use. So you would name one login: gaming, another: reddit etc... and it can autofill the correct email address and password

What is the install location of BitWarden? I hate programs that do not allow users to choose an install location. I just installed and tried BitWarden... which did not offer me an option to change or select a location for installation. After the installation, I looked for the install location but could not find one... instead, seemed like it just shat and dumped bits and pieces in various folders all over my system drive. So I immediately uninstalled it without even bothered to create an account or use it. It did not even fully uninstall itself. It left some messes in my hard drive, and I had to manually delete the leftovers. There are plenty of password managers out there, and I would not suffer an app that does not let me choose an install location and just piss all over and left messes in my hard drive.
