How can I find a login if I know only a few characters of the password?

Chase sent me notification that my username and a password were found on the Dark Web. They said the compromised website was unknown. They gave me only the username I used and the last three characters of a (randomly generated) password. I'd like to change that login. I need to search my vault using just three characters of the password. Is this possible?

    Hi there @dmbulfer

    You can search for partial passwords in the Search box at the top of the window. Make sure you click "Show all matching items" or press ⌘↩ (Command–Return) to see the list of results.

    As an example, I entered the last three characters of the example password for this example item and it appeared:

    Additionally, you might want to check Watchtower, since this will also alert you to any breached, vulnerable, or weak passwords for websites.

    ☞ Use Watchtower to find passwords you need to change

    Give that a try and let me know how you get on. I'll be here if you need further help. :)
