KeePass 2.30

KeePass

KeePass is a free open source password manager, 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 file. So you only have to remember one single master password or select the key file to unlock the whole database. The databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known (AES and Twofish).

KeePass is really free, and more than that: it is open source (OSI certified). You can have a look at its full source and check whether the encryption algorithms are implemented correctly.

KeePass features:

  • Strong Security
  • Multiple User Keys
  • Portable and No Installation Required, Accessibility
  • Export To TXT, HTML, XML and CSV Files
  • Import From Many File Formats
  • Easy Database Transfer
  • Support of Password Groups

  • Auto-Type, Global Auto-Type Hot Key and Drag&Drop
  • Intuitive and Secure Clipboard Handling
  • Searching and Sorting
  • Multi-Language Support
  • Strong Random Password Generator
  • Plugin Architecture
  • Open Source!

Changes from 2.29 to 2.30:

New Features

  • When opening a database via an URL fails, the error message dialog now has a button 'Specify different server credentials' (on Windows Vista and higher).
  • Added support for opening entry URLs with Microsoft Edge via the context menu -> 'URL(s)' -> 'Open with Edge'.
  • Added URL override suggestion for Microsoft Edge in the URL override suggestions drop-down list in the entry dialog.
  • Added optional built-in global URL overrides for opening HTTP/HTTPS URLs with Microsoft Edge.
  • When clicking on a group link in the entry view, KeePass now ensures that the group is visible in the group tree.
  • The main window is now moved onto the primary screen when it is restored outside all screens.
  • KDBX loader: added support for non-empty protected binary value reference elements.
  • Plugins: added two auto-type sequence query events.
  • Added workaround for Mono drawing bug when scrolling a rich text box.
  • When running under Mono, some automatic locking options are now disabled (because Mono doesn't implement the required events).
  • The installer now prevents running the installer while it is already running.
  • KPScript: added '-GroupPath:' parameter (for specifying the full path of a group).
  • KPScript: the 'MoveEntry' command now also supports the '-GroupName:' parameter (as alternative to '-GroupPath:').
  • KPScript: added support for specifying the path of an XSL stylesheet file using the command line parameter '-XslFile:'.
  • KPScript: the 'ListGroups' command now also outputs the parent group UUID for each group.
  • KPScript: the parameters for specifying new field data (for the 'AddEntry' and the 'EditEntry' command) now support escape sequences (e.g. '\n' is replaced by a new-line character).
