From my understanding, muscle memory is formed when a task is repeated frequently. It's basically like your "normal" memory caching these motions. So, in theory, you should at least _know_ your memory cached passwords.

Ah, I hate it when that happens. Have you tried using a password manager like LastPass or 1password?

- lucb1e 14y agoI don't feel like storing my passwords anywhere but in my head. The rare case that I do write them down, I make sure it's not easy to find what account it belongs to and that it's stored securely. And it's usually only written down temporarily until I remember it.
