Add-on summary

This extension works with the Password Vault provided by the PC Protect application. Instead of manually searching for a password within PC Protect, you can now search the vault directly from any web page.

Simply click one of the icons added by the extension to get a list of possible passwords for the current website. Selecting the entry will then add your login information. If you don't currently have any passwords saved for the website, you can generate a new one to add to the vault.

The extension will detect logins to a website not stored in the vault, or if any existing entries have a different password. You'll be prompted whether you would like to save this new data.

This extension needs access to your data to function, including the usernames, passwords and website details to work with the PC Protect Password Vault. Without agreeing to the privacy policy, this extension will not function.

Please note: this extension requires PC Protect v5.7+ to be installed on your PC.
