How on earth can you both not accept the password I copied from my password safe and tell me that I cannot use the same pasaword again?

    Start using it! You dont have to insert all your passwords immediately. It can naturally grow, minimizing startup cost

      It’s kinda neat when you do, though. For the obvious reason, of course. But I find also that it has the extra feature of showing you all at once just how many accounts you really have.

      For most people who use the Internet, I expect it’s easily dozens, perhaps over a hundred. It is truly no wonder why people reuse passwords or rely on simple algorithmic tricks to remember passwords, there is literally no way the common person could develop a unique secure password on their own for all of these services and recall all of them. A secure password manager is truly the only reasonable solution.
