Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/quasar/Quasar/issues/925

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
If browser(s) are not installed in default location nothing is recovered

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a search option or automatic search ability

Additional context
To save space like I do, others may do the same and install non essential apps on secondary drive(s)
saving space on my main SSD/HDD So, browsers and other may not be in default location causing
password recovery to fail.

That does not work for me. Am I doing something wrong? It just opens the program. "C:\Users\<username>\Downloads\Test\WebBrowserPassView.exe" /stab "C:\Users\<username>\Downloads\Test\Done.csv"

you're using wrong version of web_browser_password.exe
it's explained there on the website, but it's easy to miss that part on that endless wall of text.

there are 2 version of browser password tool:

one has command line support and can be used silently in the background, possibly for nefarious reasons. antivirus doesn't like that and marks it as potentially risky hacking tool.
that's why there's a second version that can only be used with visible window gui. problem solved, no sneakery peakery, so av doesn't mind.

get version with commands from here:
https://www.nirsoft.net/password_recovery_tools.html

that part where it says::

1.  Click this download link.
2.  Enter 'download' as the user name, and 'nirsoft123!' as the password.
3.  After downloading the package, extract the files from it using the following password: nirsoft123!

remember to disable antivirus before using password tool, or add it exceptions, or av will hunt it down instantly.

and done. now that command will work:
"C:\Users\<username>\Downloads\Test\WebBrowserPassView.exe" /stab "C:\Users\<username>\Downloads\Test\Done.csv"

pass tool will run without showing anything on the screen and will output results to csv
