Are Password Managers Safe?

https://www.usnews.com/360-reviews/password-managers/are-password-managers-safe

Excerpts:


What Happens if You Forget Your Master Password?


If you have lost or forgotten your master password, you may need to delete your account and start over from scratch, as most companies do not allow you to reset it easily. But, depending on the company, there are a few steps that you can take to try to save your data or regain access.

•Use recovery codes: some services will give you a list of recovery codes, usually when you sign up. These should be written down or saved somewhere secure. If you have these on hand, you can use them to regain access.
•If your service uses biometric security (fingerprints or face scans), you may be able to use these to reset your master password, usually on a smartphone.
•If you set up an emergency contact (not all managers allow this), they may be able to reset your master password.
•Check if your password manager is still logged in on another device. If so, you may be able to back up your passwords before deleting or resetting your account.
•If these options don’t work or aren’t available, you’ll most likely have to fully reset your account, which means you will lose all your saved passwords.
=================================================================
When you read the options in these excerpts after forgetting your master password, and the options don't work you could lose all of your saved passwords. With Wave VSC 2.0, the PIN recovery process is simpler, more secure, and your secure credentials are safe!!!
Why take a chance with a password manager when you could have better security with Wave VSC 2.0?!
