Frequently asked questions

Can I recover a credential I generated even if I didn't save it to a record?

Yes, if you used Keeper's password or passphrase generator but forgot to save it to a record, you can retrieve it from Generator History. To do this, click the clock icon in the generator window.

Where is my generator history stored?

Generator History is saved locally in your encrypted Keeper Vault and is only accessible through your account. No generated credentials are ever stored externally or shared with Keeper's servers, maintaining a zero-knowledge architecture.

How do I set default options for generated passwords or passphrases?

After customizing your generator settings to the appropriate length, character types and separators, check the box labeled Use as default settings at the bottom of the generator screen. This will save your preferences and apply them to all future password and passphrase generations.

Does generating a new password change the login on the website?

No, changing or generating a credential with Keeper does not update that credential on its associated website. You must manually update the password or use KeeperFill to update it.
