LastPass is a secure password manager that remembers your passwords and logs you into your online accounts as you work. LastPass will not only generate strong passwords for you and help deter phishing attacks, but it will also streamline your everyday workflow and save you time by eliminating your password problems.

  1. To begin, log in to the target site and access the account settings or preferences page where you can change your password.
  2. When you launch the change password page, you will usually be asked to enter your old password, with a new password entered twice. Click on the field icon in the current password field, and select the login. LastPass will fill in the current password for the login you selected:
  3. After auto-filling the current password, you can then click the ‘Generate’ field icon in the ‘New Password’ field to begin to create a random, unique password:

  4. Select the options you wish, and if you accept the password that has been generated, click Use Password to autofill both the ‘New password’ and the ‘Confirm Password’ fields on the website. This will also create a backup copy of the generated password in your Vault called ‘Generated password for…’.
  5. You will then be asked to confirm if this is a password change or a new entry. Choose Yes, Use for this Site to overwrite your existing password with the new one. Choose No, Save as New Entry to save this as a new entry in your Vault and not continue with the password change.

  6. Now click ‘Save’ to submit the changes to the website. After clicking Save, LastPass will prompt you to either Confirm or Save New Site
  7. By clicking on Confirm, you will tell LastPass to swap the old password for the entry with the new, generated password. Save New Site creates an entirely new entry for the site with your previous username and new, generated password.
  8. The next time you log in to your site, LastPass will autofill with the new, generated password!

Also, make sure to access/view LastPass through the Google Chrome extension and not by opening a tab on your web browser.
