When you use a password manager, the security of your passwords and your
master password is only as strong as the security of the computer where the
password manager is installed and used. If your computer or device is
compromised and spyware is installed, the spyware can watch you type your
master password and could steal the contents of the password safe. So it's still

your password safe in a crash (or if you have your devices taken
away from you), it may be hard to recover your passwords.
Password safe programs will usually have a way to make a
separate backup, or you can use your regular backup program.
You can usually reset your passwords by asking services to send you a
password recovery email to your registered email address. For that reason, you
may want to memorize the passphrase to this email account also. If you do
that, then you will have a way of resetting passwords without depending on
your password safe.
