[QUOTE="jackuars, post: 907243, member: 24462"] Not a bad idea. An encrypted word document, with a totally different file name, and probably hidden from the device. Hackers won't even bother to check these word documents. They are more invested in cracking passwords online, detecting vulnerabilities in password managers both local and on the cloud. Most software companies especially dealing with the paid ones, try to create a psychological need into buying their products, when most home users who just use basic features would be otherwise more than satisfied with this functionality. That's how businesses work. Do you feel protected with your default protection - Windows Defender? Maybe not. A home user now switches to the brand's free solution. Then you get an advertisement on how free antivirus is not as effective as a paid solution. This way they create an unnecessary need for trying out their paid counterpart. [/QUOTE]
