Let me start by Saying I Already read this (after the fact).
"Notes:
Passwords are not saved in reports.
SIW can only be used to recover the passwords for the current logged-on user on your local computer.
SIW only works if you chose the remember your password in one of the above programs.
You cannot use this utility for grabbing the passwords of other users.
Only Technician's/Business Versions.
?"
I KNOW the past in the FREE version you could copy and paste the passwords. I believe in the past PAID version it allowed you to save/print them.
So having just purchased the technician's license with updates forever I was rather dismayed that I could not create a report, save, or even copy and paste the password list.
As a technician it's very useful to be able to do a report including licenses passwords names before reloading a machine, and then give the report to the customer so they have a copy of the 2 dozen passwords they forgot because they saved them 2 years ago and haven't had to type them in since.
You have no Idea how many times I’ve had a user tell me ‘My email is [email protected] , but it doesn’t have a password.’ Which of course it does, and then I have to try a password reset, which of course they don’t know, then I have to walk them through calling the isp and getting it reset.
The primary reason I purchased the software was to have a quick easy utility to pull their name, license and password info and put it all on one sheet of paper to speak. I know I take a screenshot and do it that way, but that’s extra steps and defeats the purpose. So why has this been disabled in newer PAID versions?
