And I'm very happy it exists. The company requires changing our password 
every three months but it isn't rigorous about the new password so mine 
are pretty much the same with the requisite uppercase, numeral, and 
special character. For example P@ssword!, Passw0rd!, !P@ssw0rd, and so 
forth. I changed mine in the office the last time. Tuesday when I wanted 
to remote in I found I'd not changed the company laptop and wasn't sure 
which of the Goldberg Variations it was on. I did manage to hit the right 
one before getting locked out.

Even better, when I tried to update that password it failed. In the past I 
think it updates itself when it's connected to the VPN but I'm not sure so 
I may go through the same crap the next time I try to use it.

I had happily used the same password for 20 years or more. Then I broke my 
hip, wound up in rehab, and when they were setting up a laptop so I could 
work from rehab IT discovered I'd somehow been grandfathered into a 
permanent password. 

Then there is AT&T. I haven't used landline long distance in ages and when 
I tried to log into my seldom used account I had no clue what the password 
was. 'What is the answer to your secret question?'  Not 'what was the name 
of your first dog' or some other clue what the goddam secret question was 
that I'd selected when I still had a AT&T calling card.
