Generate complex password in two strings in Powershell
Usually, I generate passwords for my users by closing my eyes and chaotically pressing the buttons on keyboard. There is a new way now - I can generate it in Powershell easily:
$pw = [char[]]"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890!%&*+()=?|<>_-@$"
{($pw | Get-Random -Count 12) -join ""}
That will be a single password from 12 chars.
Also you can action like that:
(1..100) | ForEach({($pw | Get-Random -Count 12) -join ""})
And this will be one hundred (100) of passwords.
