PassShed
For any of you who don't know, I've been programming for several years now and am pursuing a degree in IT (specifically, applications development).
PassShed is a personal project I've been working on in C# for the past few weeks (outside of school, of course... damn place hasn't taught me anything useful) and probably the biggest project I've taken on. As the name implies, it's a password/user account manager. I'd really appreciate some testers/users to track down bugs and suggest improvements/new features. [Current Release] Download Link (v1.2) README: Code:
PassShed Version 1.2 BluShark Media ====Description============================ PassShed was developed to be a simple, data-driven solution for managing user accounts and passwords. =========================================== ====ChangeLog/Release Notes================ v1.2 (6/17/13) - Drastically improved security features - Redesigned installer to support keeping settings/data when uninstalling/reinstalling - After adding/updating a record, it is now automatically selected in the Shed - Minor GUI tweaks - Cleaned up/optimized code and other stuff you guys don't care about v1.1 - Changed default installation destination for Windows 8 users - Implemented master password - Added tooltips for most controls - User is now warned of the consequences of deleting a category - Cleaned up code ============================================ ====Known Bugs/Issues======================= Bugs: - All bugs are currently in hiding; please report any Minor Issues/Annoyances: - If the user adds a record belonging to category X while viewing category Y, the Shed does not navigate to category X (currently attempting a work-around) - If the user clicks on a row in "View All" mode, the category ComboBox does not update accordingly (attempting a work-around, but I suggest adding records from within its category view) ============================================

Just a couple of suggestions as it was tricky to figure out what to do:
Grey out fields that are not being used so the user knows what to click. Don't allow blank records. Put the delete and edit fields next to the actual record. Otherwise it's actually pretty nice and simple. What do you use to encrypt the database file?

Good idea. I've left the visible fields nullable in the case that a service name or username isn't necessary, but there's no point in allowing completely blank records. For the next build, I'm thinking of allowing the user to make edits/changes in the DataGridView control itself (the grid displaying the data on the right). If so, I think I can add a column for each row with a delete button in it. The database file itself is not encrypted... only the passwords therein. This was also my first dive into cryptography/hashing, so I used the Triple DES encryption method which seems to be pretty standard.

Updated to v1.3.
I've been experiencing a weird error with the v1.3 update when I first open the program, but it happens very rarely. I've tried tracking it down and it seems to be a problem with C# that I can't fix. Let me know if you guys get an error message when first booting it up. Anyway, I added quite a bit on this release. Lots of GUI tweaks to improve the flow, like Scott suggested.

Getting better, but the insert is still not very intuitive IMO. After a new record is added, maybe clear out the fields in preparation for another record. The insert button should probably clear the fields and remove the clear button all together.
It would probably be better to just have another form pop up for add/edit. If I rename a category, but click cancel it remove the category name anyways.
