USING THE PORTABLE VERSION OF PASSWORD MANAGER
Password Manager allows storing all your passwords on a removable medium (e.g., a flash card or a cell phone if it is
used as flash card). To do so, you should create a portable version of the Password Manager on a removable device.
The application's portable version is created on the computer where the full version of Kaspersky Password Manager has
been installed. The portable version of the application features the full functionality of Password Manager.
The portable version allows using Password Manager on a public computer (for example, in a cybercafé or a library),
where the Password Manager is not installed. As soon as a removable device is connected to the computer, Password
Manager starts up automatically. As soon as a removable device is disabled, Password Manager automatically closes
and removes all of your data from the public computer.
Besides, you can use the portable version to synchronize your Password Databases, if Password Manager is installed
and is used simultaneously on several computers (for example, on your home computer and in your office).
