Adding password list

Postby softworkz » Fri Jun 19, 2015 10:48 pm

Hi,

I have a very simple question: Assuming I have a list of passwords as a text separated by line breaks. Is there any easier way to get this list into Newsbin than to copy/paste each individual line into the password manager dialog one by one?

Thanks,

RarPasswords.txt is a simple text file. It contains the password list. You can add to it with wordpad.

Keep in mind, the more passwords in the list, the longer it takes to find the password. If you add 1000 passwords it might stall Newsbin out for minutes while trying to find the correct one.

But modifying this file would require a restart of Newsbin, wouldn't it?

No. Newsbin reads the file each time. I did that specifically so you could change it. Another reason to keep it a reasonable size.
