That's a feature, not a bug.
- ChrisMarshallNY 4y agoYes, but not being able to recover the account, is a bug. The issue was that I used a randomly-generated password from 1Password, and accidentally re-generated, before copying, so the original was lost. That's a fairly common mistake. I'm usually careful to avoid that (now).
- rand0mx1 4y agoAt least in bitwarden app they provide history of passwords for every url.
- ChrisMarshallNY 4y agoSo does 1Password. However, the generator can be run standalone (not connected with an entry). In that case, the password is not saved, because there's no entry to save it to. It does not offer to automatically create an entry, until after the login, so it's still quite possible to "fall through the cracks," which is what happened here. Yeah, my bad. :P
- kazinator 4y agoSome people generate random passwords and never use them, always using recovery to regain access. That has to work.
