This article guides you on how to install Bitdefender Password Manager to the web browsers you’ve got on your Windows PC and Mac. Unlike most desktop apps, which need to be installed and set up, Bitdefender Password Manager comes as an extension also called add-on that can be quickly added to your browser. Currently, Password Manager supports the following desktop browsers: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari.
Prior to the installation, make sure you have a valid Password Manager subscription in your Bitdefender Central account so that this browser extension can retrieve its validity from your account. Active subscriptions are listed in the “My Subscriptions” section of Central. For more information about subscriptions, see – How to activate your Bitdefender Subscription.

Using Bitdefender Password Manager

To use these accounts, you will be asked from now on to sign in with your Bitdefender Central account and then input your master password. Bitdefender will take care of the rest.
