Password Tech 3.4.2

Password Tech is a Windows application that can help you generate secure passwords and generally any kind of secure key for access control and data protection. To this end, it uses a cryptographically secure pseudo-random number generator based on strong cryptographic algorithms:

Random generation through a combination of the one-way hash function SHA-256 and the encryption algorithm Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) or ChaCha20 with a 256-bit key.
Entropy accumulation by collecting volatile system parameters and exploiting indeterministic timing from user input such as keystrokes, mouse clicks, and mouse movements.

Password Tech is capable of generating a large variety of passwords and passphrases, which may be composed of purely random characters or words, or follow certain rules, so that they can be memorized more easily:

Passwords composed of random characters from a character set.
Passphrases composed of random words from a word list.
Phonetic (pronounceable) passwords based on language-specific trigram (3-letter) frequencies.
Passwords based on user-defined patterns (formatted passwords) using a variety of placeholders for different character sets.
Execution of Lua scripts with a programming interface to Password Tech allows full control over the process of password generation.
Generation of large amounts of passwords at once, which can be displayed in a window, stored in a file, or output on the console.
Full Unicode support in the entire application. Unicode encodings UTF-8 and UTF-16 (both LE and BE) are supported (conversion to non-Unicode ANSI character encoding is also possible, in case Unicode is not needed).

Apart from generating secure passwords, Password Tech provides many useful functionalities related to password usage and storage:

Password manager functionality through databases encrypted with a master password, containing passwords associated with a title, user name, URL, etc.
Strong encryption using AES or ChaCha20 with a 256-bit key.
Automatic insertion of passwords in website forms and other applications through an “autotype” functionality.
“Password hasher” that generates passwords from a master password and a variable parameter (similar to Hashapass).
Encryption of clipboard text and password lists using AES with a 256-bit key.

Password Tech comes with an in-depth PDF user manual and a second manual on scripting with Lua.

RELEASE NOTES:
--------------
Version 3.4.2

NEW FEATURES:
- Tray menu: In case that some windows of the applications are not properly
restored by the operating system when switching between multiple monitors,
all windows can be restored to the current primary monitor through the
"Reset All Window Positions" functionality (available in the tray menu)
- Password manager: File/database properties dialog accessible via "File |
Properties..."
- Autotype sequence: Command "{wait:N}" (time N in milliseconds between 10 and
10000) allows inserting custom delays into a sequence
- Added random pool cipher "ChaCha8" as a reduced-round variant of the default
ChaCha20 stream cipher for performance-critical applications
- Benchmark test for random pool ciphers

CHANGES &amp; IMPROVEMENTS:
- Changed DPI awareness to "Per Monitor v2"
