How to move from Passwords Plus Windows to another app

In order to move into another password manager, you must first get your data OUT of Passwords Plus. Once you do that, you can decide where to move it. 

Note: Once you export to a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file that file is no longer encrypted and can be opened without a password. Once the file is imported into a new password manager, remember to delete the CSV file.

Steps to do this:

  1. Export data from Passwords Plus Windows into a CSV file
  2. Import that CSV file into another app.  We recommend mSecure and they are offering Passwords Plus a discount.  More info here.
