Encrypted Password Manager

EPM is a code that lets you create, edit, delete, search, and view passwords and their related information (website, nickname). The information is encrypted in a file on your hard drive and you must use a meta-password to access them. That's the only password you'll need to remember. If you forget it, your file will be unusable. The unprotected text file is sent to trash automatically, but for better security you need to delete it manually, or empty your trash. That's the only password you'll need to remember. If you don't have a password manager, this is a good option. If you already do, make sure you trust the company owning it.
