Speaking from experience - always backup your password files to a different machine!!!
If you’re on multiple OS’ you can use a 3rd party manager like bitwarden or 1password which will save your passwords securely in the cloud which also helps synchronize access.
Microsoft authenticator will do the same thing.
I always use Supercalafragilisticexpialodocius
Never gets hacked
LOL
I have a state of the art device for holding all my passwords and it’s 100% hack proof. It is called a Daytimer!! Been using one my entire career and it sits at my desk in my home office and hasn’t been hacked yet.
I use LastPass. Cloud backed up (fully encrypted) and they don’t even know your unencrypted master password. For a small fee you can use across all your devices and they sync.
