CtrlPass organizes credentials into individual profiles. A profile contains items including web site, user Id, password, and note. The note item can be used to keep additional information such as security questions.

CtrlPass is composed of two windows: Main Screen and Profile Shortcut. The Main Screen is for you to create and manipulate profiles. The Profile Shortcut is a popup window containing profiles for you to launch a website and help typing credentials. To have CtrlPass type credentials, you simply set mouse cursor in the credential box, press Ctrl+1 to open Profile Shortcut, browse to the right profile, then select user Id or password. When double clicking on a profile, you can view credentials in plain text.

CtrlPass is designed with high privacy protection. It will automatically close all windows after inactivity timeout. Furthermore, it never shows credentials in plain text by default. You have to switch between plain text view and hidden text view by double clicking on a profile on Main Screen or Profile Shortcut in order to view credentials in plain text.

CtrlPass supports password generation with a set of rules that you specified. For example, you can have a key word included in all your passwords. CtrlPass also saves your last 10 passwords you have used before so that, if you like, you can reuse them.

|
Some websites or applications require you to change password periodically which involves with steps such as entering current password, entering new password, and re-entering new password. With Profile Shortcut's Change Password option, you can do that in just one click.

|
CtrlPass is protected by a single master password. If you forget your master password or the master password is locked due to failed attempts, CtrlPass allows you to recover it by sending you a passcode provding that you have set your email with CtrlPass.

CtrlPass is free. The current version is 1.7.5335 (released on 12/2/2010).
