Backing up Lenovo Password Manager

Hey everybody,

I just set up some tasks to back up my laptop daylie. Now I want to include my Lenovo Password Manager. I took a peek in the help, but I couldn't find anything other than export my data. I have automated my backups, so it would be a waste to have to manually export.

So my question is, if there is a file/profile that I can just back up? Otherwise, is there a way to do this via command line?

So far, thanks to advice.

Best regards.

Solution - command line:

"...\Lenovo\Password Manager\pwm_utility.exe" /e filepath = "somepath.pwm" password = "somepassword"

Best regards.

  • Password Manager cohabitant with Keepass

    I have improved my form T510 Windows 7 to Windows 10. Since Lenovo Password Manager does not work with Windows 10 more, I want to import the backup *.pwm in Keepass. But same KeepassX - 0.4.3 - win32 does not recognize the file *.pwm.

    Y at - it a migration tool available that allows to extract the data from the *.pwm file and import them into keepass?

    There is no tool like this.  The PWM file is the property of Password Manager.  There is not a way to automatically migrate you hope.

  • Whenever I update FireFox all my usernames and passwords vanish in password manager

    For several updates recent Firefox all my usernames and passwords (stored in password manager) disappear. I was able to recover them by exchanging one or more of the three files to a previous version ('Key3db', 'Logins.json' and 'Prefs.js') until this WHAT THE LAST THREE OR FOUR updates. This patch no longer works and I hesitate so far. I would like to know... a) this bug has been fixed?
    (b) if it is not, how can I keep my ID & password somewhere else so I can quickly re - install, or at least see them in a list so I can manually copy all back in?
    (c) how to prevent a pop-up annoying telling me to update to FireFox (other than by the update)?

    I used FireFox with happiness for many years, but this problem is very annoying and I am looking to change (with great reluctance) to another browser if an other update loses all usernames and passwords, and I have to re - install an older version to get back them.
    Please help if you can - and thank you for considering this issue.

    These can not get your data back, but will help in the future.

  • Impossible to disable password manager

    I go into Options/Security and disable 'Remember passwords for sites ". Later, when I visit a site that requires a password, the password manager asks if I want to save the password. If I come back in the options, I find that "Remember passwords for sites" has been rekindled. It happens several times.

    Perhaps the relevant facts are:

    • I use LastPass.
    • I also use FastAccess, but 'Internet connection' is disabled.

    Any ideas?

    It turns out be lack of Fast Access. I had turned off its feature "Internet connection" in the quick access application, but this is a not disable its complement in Firefox. I manually disabled the add-in and that seems to have solved the problem. I'll inform the fast access of the problem.

    Thanks for the help (and the 'method').

  • Password Manager - will it work with the new edge browser Windows 10

    Hi, did anyone know if Password Manager will work with Windows 10 edge browser? The software and all information transferred on when I've updated... but PWM is informed not passwords. Moderators of Lenovo - do you know if PWM will work in the new browser? Should I uninstall and reinstall and see if the credentials are then picked up by the browser? If it is not supported, a future version will support fill in the edge browser, credentials? Thank you.

    Nice day.

  • Password Manager is not initialized with IE 7.0

    Hello

    I have a Lenovo T61 running on XP SP2 and Client Security Solution version 8.21.0006

    Password Manager worked very well with IE 7.0 until I install a dictionary on line and started to initialize when web sites visited, where the password manager should appear and enter the password.

    I tried to/impossible to activate the option: tab, internet options, under the heading advanced navigation "enable third party browser extensions", but still I can't get this to work.

    I tested with other applications apart from IE 7 and password manager is displayed correctly.

    Do you have any suggestions on how to proceed in order to make the PM to work under IE 7?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    the solution was to repair the installation of software in Add or remove programs. (Also make sure that in internet options to turn them on third party extensions browser is marked.

    After the computer restarts, it works perfectly.

    Hope this can help anyonme with the same problems.

    Kind regards.

  • Password Manager does not accept my password to win

    Hi, I reinstalled my system Win XP (reinstalled - restore factory restore point) and using the same password for my account in XP I used before. But password manager does not accept my password more.

    When I connect to my profile, and asked me my password in the pass Manager it sayes the authentificaiton failed. It's different when I type a password for the wrogn win... It is said immediately that he didn't, but when I type the correct password to my login to Win that he continues to deal with for a while, but then he said that he could not.

    When I login as an administrator and try it... everything is OK. but in my profile is not...

    following... when I close it cancel goes away - but when I try to double click PM icon - and I wonder password... and I type my login password right it is not that he failed, but only he disappeare and noething happened... When I try to open the MP of the plateau - the same...

    in some cases, it is said that windows password has been changed and wonder the new pass - but it's always the same, I used before so I'm sure that I don't forget and I write you the wrogn-car - I woudn't power connect victory also...

    I found here that "password issues" aren't disccussed here... If not... where are? doI have to call somewhere and still a lot of money on the phone bill? I'd like to solve this problem online here or by mail...

    Hi Steve,

    Please excuse my late reply, but I am currently very busy and not at home.

    Yes, 'shutdown' meant turn off .

    The need to restore the keys seems to me as if all of the key information have been removed. Maybe there is some key information that remains after the uninstall process, and these are retrieved later during the new installation. During my process any key information have been recovered so far here.

    Are you sure, be connected as "LENOVO - BC8C81F0\Administrator. The name of the computer looks as if it was a random name. If your computer now has a different name. Maybe you have to change the name of the computer.

    I also feel that CSS is not very accurate in finding the right user and user profile folder.

    Sorry, if uninstalling and cleaning of different locations does not help you. If the problem is related to different account of your administrator account ID, I can't help you. It is a problem well beyond my capabilities of Windows.

    Good luck!

  • Google Chrome has blocked Password Manager plugin

    Hello

    As many of you know Google issued warning last year that all the NPAPI plugins are deleted and the first step to do is to disable all plugins that are not from the Chrome Web Store. Well today is the day and I just got a warning announcing that Password Manager plugin is disabled and I'll never be able to reactivate again (unless Lenovo submits to the Chrome Web Store).

    So my question is - Lenovo has plans of presentation of Password Manager plugin Chrome Web Store within a reasonable time?

    We noticed this problem

    We would release the fix very soon.

    Please note the new TVSU update at the end of this month.

  • How can I trust firefox password manager

    Firefox password manager is safe? Can you give us some information about it? Focus mainly on: how is it difficult to crack passwords on firefox password manager to a hacker? How our data is stored, i.e. the type of encryption, both in my computer and your server?

    The names and passwords stored in logins.json is encrypted with an encryption key that is stored in the file signons3.txt.
    The master password adds an extra level to this encryption.
    If you do not use a master password, then having access to key3db and logins.json is not enough to have access to the encrypted names and passwords by placing the two files in one Firefox profile folder.
    Make sure to use a password is strong enough, for example at least 10 or 12 characters and a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols that can be found via a dictionary search for combining words and you should be safe.

  • How can I find my password when password manager won't let me use Thunderbird?

  • Password Manager won't save the username

    Sometimes, the password manager does not save the username, but just the password. A way to insert the username, or forcing the Manager to save it? I have experimented with this and are unable to save the user name.

    It might be 5% of my password sites. Could not get an any of them to work right. They are all different types of sites.

    Thank you

    You can try the 'saved Password Editor' found on the page modules. I find it rather useful myself.

       B.R.
    

    PS:
    Sorry I don't have the web address on the top of my head right now, but you can find it by going to Manager modules - tools > Add-ons - and type 'Saved password editor' in the search bar.

  • Lost password manager

    My firefox site was slow and a warning has come to suggesting that I re - install. I checked and it said that all passwords would be saved. Having done that I can not find the password manager on the site or any of my registered sites react with the e-mail address or the password required to connect. I think I lost everything! Help!

    Did you reset Firefox and create a new profile?

    When you reset Firefox and a new profile is created and some personal data (bookmarks, history, cookies, passwords, data form) are automatically imported and the current profile folder will be moved on the desktop to a folder "Old data Firefox".
    Installed extensions and other customizations (toolbars, Pref.) that you have made are lost and must be redone.

    It is possible to retrieve the data from the old profile, but be careful not to copy the files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

    You would copy the signons.sqlite and key3db files in the folder "Old data Firefox" in the current Firefox profile folder.
    Note that Firefox 32 and later will use logins.json instead of signons.sqlite.

    If you use the time Machine then you can also try to recover files through this application.

  • How to manually ADD the login data to my password manager?

    I want to manually add a web site and my login data to the list of password manager.

You are using Internet Explorer Version 11, I was able to store my login data for the site, but I can not with Firefox. How to overcome this restriction with Firefox?

    Try to click in the user name field, and then click the correct username of the offered suggestion; then the username and password should be completed automatically.
