Releases: HobbieJ/PasswordGenerator
"Fixed A Bug"
The details of this bug fix are described below:
When a user attempted to generate a password, but received an error, the user could close out of the password generation screen, which caused an overflow error, or a repeating loop error, both which were fatal to the application, and the later causing a massive increase in CPU usage to the system running the application.
Enjoy the new release!
P.S. Thanks to my friend Ramil for finding the bug!

"New Beginnings"
This isn't a great way to release a new version of this, but I felt it needed it. Major changes include:
- Removed encryption feature
- Removed saving to file
- Added About screen
Why did I remove the encryption feature of this app? There are two reasons:
- It didn't really work. It could encrypt passwords, but not un-encrypt them.
- I rolled my own crypto. When I first made this application in High School, I didn't realize the rules around internet and program security. While I do recommend using 1Password, almost everywhere I talk about this app, I think it's better to set an example, and remove something unsafe, even with warnings.
Encryption might come back to this app in the future. I like to mess around with this app every few years or so to add features, clean up, or just mess around with something nostalgic. That's why it's called New Beginnings!
