Toolbar: The toolbar provides one-click access to Password Saver's most commonly used functions.
Tree-like Menu: The tree-like menu is where you access and organize your data. The interface is similar to the familiar Windows desktop, with Records stored in Folders and a Recycle Bin for deleting and recovering files.
