KeePass 2.08   (1.8 MB)

What's New in KeePass 2.08:

• Key transformation library: KeePass can now use Windows' CNG/BCrypt API for key transformations (about 50% faster than the KeePass built-in key transformation code; by increasing the amount of rounds by 50%, you'll get the same waiting time as in 2.07, but the protection against dictionary and guessing attacks is raised by a factor of 1.5; only Windows Vista and higher).
• Added support for sending keystrokes (auto-type) to windows that are using different keyboard layouts.
• Added option to remember key file paths (enabled by default).
• Added internal editor for text files (text only and RTF formatted text; editor can edit entry attachments).
• Internal data viewer: added support for showing rich text (text with formatting).
• Added inheritable group settings for disabling auto-type and searching for all entries in this group (see tab 'Behavior'); for new recycle bins, both properties are set to disabled.
• Added new placeholders: {DB_PATH}, {DB_DIR}, {DB_NAME}, {DB_BASENAME}, {DB_EXT}, {ENV_DIRSEP}, {DT_SIMPLE}, {DT_YEAR}, {DT_MONTH}, {DT_DAY}, {DT_HOUR}, {DT_MINUTE}, {DT_SECOND}, {DT_UTC_SIMPLE}, {DT_UTC_YEAR}, {DT_UTC_MONTH}, {DT_UTC_DAY}, {DT_UTC_HOUR}, {DT_UTC_MINUTE}, {DT_UTC_SECOND}.
• The password character picking dialog now supports pre-defining the number of characters to pick; append :k in the placeholder to specify a length of k (for example, {PICKPASSWORDCHARS3:5} would be a placeholder with ID 3 and would pick 5 characters from the password); advantage: when having picked k characters, the dialog closes automatically, i.e. saves you to click [OK].
• IDs in {PICKPASSWORDCHARSn} do not need to be consecutive anymore.
• The password character picking dialog now first dereferences passwords (i.e. placeholders can be used here, too).
• Added '-minimize' command line option.
• Added '-iousername', '-iopassword' and '-iocredfromrecent' command line options.
• Added '--auto-type' command line option.
• Added support for importing FlexWallet 1.7 XML files.
• Added option to disable protecting the clipboard using the CF_CLIPBOARD_VIEWER_IGNORE clipboard format.
• Added support for WebDAV URLs (thanks to Ryan Press).
• Added shortcut keys in master key prompt dialog.
• Added entry templates functionality (first specify an entry templates group in the database settings dialog, then use the 'Add Entry' toolbar drop-down button).
• Added AceCustomConfig class (accessible through host interface), that allows plugins to store their configuration data in the KeePass configuration file.
• Added ability for plugins to store custom data in KDBX database files (PwDatabase.CustomData).
• Added interface for custom password generation algorithm plugins.
• URLs in the entry preview window are now always clickable (especially including cmd:// URLs).
• Added option to copy URLs to the clipboard instead of opening them (Options -> Interface, turned off by default).
• Added option to automatically resize entry list columns when resizing the main window (turned off by default).
• Added 'Sync' command in KPScript scripting tool.
• Added FIPS compliance problems self-test (see FAQ for details about FIPS compliance).
• Added Rijndael/AES block size validation and configuration.
• Added NotifyIcon workaround for Mono under Mac OS X.
• Added confirmation box for empty master passwords.
• Added radio buttons in auto-type sequence editing dialog to choose between the default entry sequence and a custom one.
• Added hint that group notes are shown in group tooltips.
• Added test for KeePass 1.x plugins and an appropriate error message.
• Added interface for writing master password requirements validation plugins.
• Key provider plugin API: enhanced key query method by a context information object.
• Key provider plugin API: added 'DirectKey' property to key provider base class that allows returning keys that are directly written to the user key data stream.
• Key provider plugin API: added support for exclusive plugins.
• The '-keyfile' command line option now supports selecting key providers (plugins).
• Auto-Type: added option to send an Alt keypress when only the Alt modifier is active (option enabled by default).
• Added warning when trying to use only Alt or Alt-Shift as global hot key modifier.
• TrlUtil: added search functionality and toolbar.
• TrlUtil: version is now shown in the window title.

About:

Today you need to remember many passwords. You need a password for the Windows network logon, your e-mail account, your homepage's ftp password, online passwords (like CodeProject member account), etc. etc. etc. The list is endless. Also, you should use different passwords for each account. Because if you use only one password everywhere and someone gets this password you have a problem... A serious problem. The thief would have access to your e-mail account, homepage, etc. Unimaginable.

KeePass is a free/open-source password manager or safe which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a key-disk. So you only have to remember one single master password or insert the key-disk to unlock the whole database. The databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known (AES and Twofish).

• KeePass supports the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and the Twofish algorithms to encrypt its password databases.
• your passwords are encrypted while KeePass is running, so even if Windows caches the KeePass process to disk, this wouldn't reveal your passwords anyway.
• One master password decrypts the complete database.
• KeePass runs, without downloading any additional libraries, on Windows 95, 98, 98SE, ME, NT, 2000, XP (Home & Pro, 32-bit & 64-bit), 2003 and Vista.
• The password list can be exported to various formats like TXT, HTML, XML and CSV.
• KeePass supports time fields: creation time, last modification time, last access time and expiration time.
