If you're using the browser extension and you go to Add Item > Password you get taken to a window where you can create a whole new login but there's inexplicably no way to generate a new secure password from LastPass?!?!?! HUH? And if you go to Generate Secure Password the only option it gives you is to 'fill'. Never realized this issue until I needed to do it this way but now it's mind-boggling to me how this is missing.

The Android app has an icon right in the Password field to Generate a Secure Password - why is this not the case in Windows? It's just embarrassing, If you want to bury a feature, I don't see how you can do much better than hide it two levels in on a right-click menu. Because Generate a Secure Password - perhaps the most important feature in LastPass - IS definitely hidden. That's assuming a user can find and remember where that feature is hiding in the first place. Every time a user wants to generate a secure password from the Edit or Add Password window, they have to 1) Right-click in the Password field to show the context menu 2) Hover over the LastPass menu item to display the submenu then 3) select the Generate Secure Password. The problem is the same whether using the browser extension or the LastPass vault page directly.

I find it absurd - and maddening - that there is no single-click method to Generate a Secure Pasword while editing or creating a password in a Windows browser. This issue is so problematic, that I personally feel is should be reported as a major bug, not a Feature 'Suggestion'. Would love to hear if anyone has a workaround - in an enterprise setting, where you can't use the browser extensions. Save password in LastPass, and create userĪll I want is a simple button to bring up the password generator, and allow that to populate the password in the New Password screen.Get sinking feeling as you realise you either have to come out of that page and start again - or open another window to some other site to generate a password - or just make up some thing on the spot.Open New Password dialog, and start typing details of the site, and the username you've chosen.Go to create new credentials (and think - I need to save this to LastPass too).Realise you don't have this in your vault (after searching in Vault window).The reason this is really frustrating, is because you don't typically 'know' you need a password before you need one - and it still hits me every time - after using LastPass for years. Password Generator | LastPass - but that always assumes you're not a user, and tries to sign you up - which is also irritating

Also - as it's evidently a single page app - I can't see how I can 'link' to the password generator separately. Currently I would have to literally go to another site, or come out of the workflow, to go to the (weirdly buried - under Advanced Options - really!?) Generate Password page, copy, and paste etc. If I have to 'create' a new password at work - there is currently no way (inexplicably) to generate a password from within the 'New Password' page in the web Vault.

I consider it a 'must have' that I can 'paste' a password - so mobile apps are out in this case. This also, importantly means that I have to use the 'Vault' website, to access passwords on my work computer.
