If it is not possible to pronounce like 'wh8qgft' it tends to be easely forgotten. With Password Generator, the user has complete freedom to decide self how the passwords should look like. But by using the so called passwordmask, it is possible to generate passwords that is possible to pronounce and therfor not that easely forgoten. An example: CVCVCVC . A password like this generates randomly passwords that always consist of consonants and vowels in every other position starting with a consonant and ending with a consonant. Password Generator is very easy and intuitive to use. Try and failure is the best way to get experience. Normal MS-Windows functionality to save, open and create password-profiles.
