Add an Equivalent Domain To LastPass

 

I had a problem with accessing my credit union on my Windows 7 notebook after I accessed it on Windows 8.1. LastPass kept giving me a Security Warning:



Apparently I used one domain name to access the site from Windows 8.1, but not the same domain name stored in LastPass.  So now I kept getting a security warning from LastPass

This was caused by my credit union using two domain names. Actually this is not as uncommon as you might think. While trying to solve my problem of security warnings, I encountered the term ‘equivalent domains’. This seemed to be what I was looking for so I solved the problem by opening LastPass and going to Settings and clicking ‘Equivalent Domains’.



There was a long list of these equivalent domains! I scrolled to the bottom of the list and added the two domains used by my credit union, separated by a comma. and then clicked the 'Add Domains' button.

Now I am not receiving that security warning over and over and LastPass no longer bugs me with the duplicate password warning.

LastPass does have a Help section, but to find it you must go to the very bottom of the Site page (I used the Features page). Look at the Support section and click Help Center.



Now you can search the FAQs or just ask your question.

LastPass is the best password keeper I have used and I have tried a lot of them.  I did use RoboForm, but it isn’t free and is paid for on an annual basis.

LastPass is free! There is a Premium version for your smartphones and tablets.I haven’t tried that yet as right now I don’t need it.
