I paid $80 for a 'premium' password manager that just locked me out of my own accounts.

Seriously, eighty bucks for that?

Did you check if there's an emergency recovery key or code you saved when you set it up? That's usually the only way back in without the master password.

Ugh, that's the worst. Did you save that key to a file somewhere, or maybe print it? I've lost mine before and it's a huge pain.

Wait, is losing a password key really that big of a deal now? Most stuff has a "forgot password" link, @grant478. I feel like people make this sound way more scary than it is. What are you even locked out of that doesn't have a simple reset option?
