Ideally, having a different password for each site, and remembering them in your head would be best. But honestly, in a world where each website has a different, highly specific, password policy, it is hard to keep them all in mind. For Windows, KeePass is my favourite solution as a password management tool - simple, sturdy, no-bs kind of software. Whenever possible, I also aus two factor auth, to keep as safe as possible.
keeping password in your mind - it is the best option
I write all my passwords down in a book and hide it in my house. This is the safest option and I ALWAYS use MFA whether it's with Google Authenticator or text or a push notification that I simply press "Yes" or "No" to allow login. I really like the idea of those physical password drives that you have to have plugged into the computer in order to login, sounds really interesting. So you need the password and the physical drive plugged in.
Before, I used to use Dashlane for my passwords, but now that I'm on the paper method, I feel much safer. I know it can't be hacked plus I use pretty long passwords so I guess it's a good way to keep my typing skills up.
