Backup and Removing Passwords in Embird

Embird Password Back-up

Back Up Passwords from within Embird.

Embird allows you to easily back-up all inserted passwords into a "PASSWORD" file stored either on your hard disk, floppy disk, USB memory key, etc. It is strongly recommend that you back-up your passwords regularly to avoid problems caused by re-installation, hard disk failure, or virus attack. If you have a back-up copy of your passwords, it is very easy to insert them back into Embird and thus change the demo (evaluation) version into the full version.
