Since so many website require strong passwords these days, I wrote a strong-password generator for myself, which I offer to you FWIW. GenPass.exe -- a compiled AutoIt script -- generates a strong password, and saves it to the Window clipboard. "Strong" means that the password contains a random combination of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numbers. By default, GenPass.exe generates an 8-character password. Using arguments described in the documentation, you can control the length and "look" of the generated password. With a special argument, GenPass.exe 1, the generated password will be of variable length (10-18 characters) and will contain two separators. If you use password-manager software that you're happy with, you won't need this utility. If, like me, you prefer to manage your passwords manually, it may be worth a look.
