Create and protect the vault

Create your profile, choose a master password of at least 10 characters or Windows protection, then separately store the one-time recovery code.

Oxygen DW does not know and cannot recover your master password.

Add and find credentials

Each entry includes a name, website, username, password, category, notes and favourite status.

  • Search by site, name or email.
  • Group entries as Personal, Work or Finance.
  • The clipboard clears after 30 seconds if unchanged.
  • Lock the vault when leaving your computer.

Generate a strong password

Create 12-to-40-character passwords with uppercase, number and symbol options using the system cryptographic API.
